Tonight the OPS went up against Bromley, Cheam, Mitcham, Old Coulsdon and Selsdon in the first round of the SLF Mono Print competition. It couldn't have finished any closer!

Old Coulsdon 67
Orpington      67
Bromley        66.5
Cheam          66.5
Selsdon         64
Mitcham        59


This put us against Old Coulsdon into a tie-break for top spot, we came second.

Bromley won against Cheam for 3rd spot.

This now means we are in 3 semi finals all being held at West Wickham on Tuesday 12th February 2019. Unfortunately this does clash with our 3rd round PDI competition...
