Freezing conditions didn’t put the players off at the seasons
3<sup>rd</sup> dragon tournament held on the 18<sup>th</sup> of December. 19
under 11s arrived at 9am and battled it out for the trophies. However there
were no surprises at this dragon as Jake Simeone from Mumbles TTC won his second under 11
dragon with team mate Luca Caplin coming runner up, with Cade Short 3<sup>rd</sup>.</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
In the under 15s the winner was Huw Standen and runner up
was Macauley Morgan.</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
16 under 13s took part in their event which started at 1pm.
The event being wide open as none of the top 3 finishers from Novembers dragon
had entered. A truly exciting event ensured, the final top group saw 3 players
on 2 wins each. Countback was used to separate the top 3, leaving an unlucky
Niall Owen 3<sup>rd</sup>, Morgan Hams runner up and Elliot Weinberg in 1<sup>st</sup>
place. </div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
The dragon format will change in 2012, with a new under 9
age group (under 9 years of age on 31<sup>st</sup> Aug 2011), thereby
reflecting the large numbers of younger players coming through the Primary
Schools initiatives funded by TTAW. </div>

Since then he has been a major part of the Club  attending virtually all sessions  he could and has coached tirelessly  without asking anything back from those around him.  Indeed, he gained  great pleasure form ‘being there’ and ‘helping others to learn the game’.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
He also had a great impact and a huge help to Aled Howell the Regional Coach. Joe always found the time to help out at any time of the day to coach the youngsters.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Joe lost his wife to cancer about 10 years ago.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Approximately 8 to 10 weeks ago, Joe was taken ill and it was found he had  kidney stones.  However, just 11 days ago he was rushed back into hospital  where he was diagnosed with terminal cancer.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Joe died peacefully Sunday morning at approximately 5.15 am in his sleep. His  family, son Andrew and daughter Janet were with him. Two of his grandchildren  were down here as well. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
The funeral will take place on Tuesday the 20th of December. Family and friends to meet at St Cain Church Llangain at <strong>10:30 am  Tuesday 20th December 2011.</strong> This will be followed by a cremation at <strong>Llanelli Crematorium at  12 noon.</strong></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Our thoughts and condolences go to all his family.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Joe will be sadly missed.</span></div>
