Glasgow International Open 2015

Twenty eight players took part in Glasgow’s second FISTF international event of 2015 at the Normandy Hotel in Renfrew. This was also the first event of the new British Circuit for season 2015/16. Both individual and team competitions were keenly contested over two days of competitive but sporting subbuteo. Congratulations go to winners Dave Pawsey (LEU) in the Open, Dave Baxter (Per) in the Vets and Elliot Bellefontaine (LEU) in the Under 19s. Yorkshire Phoenix were victorious in the Team Event.
