CL HBBL STATUS – WITH ONE WEEK TO GO!

With just one busy week to go in the round-robin phase of the CL Hundred Ball Business League (HBBL) competition, the updated position in each group is outlined below.

GROUP A

In Group A, the 2023 Champions (Deloitte) have completed all their group games and in doing so have secured their place in the 2024 Final and the chance to retain the title which they won last summer in Anglesea Road.

GROUP B

In Group B, there are three company teams still in contention for a place in the Final.

Grant Thornton 2 are out in front having won all three of their matches to-date whilst EY have one game remaining on Wednesday when they travel to play Glanbia at Castleblunden, Co Kilkenny.

Microsoft have a head-to-head with Grant Thornton 2 on Thursday 18th at Civil Service CC. This game may well decide who plays Deloitte in the Final.

The remaining week of fixtures (all 6.00pm starts) are as follows:

• Monday 15th July: Grant Thornton 1 vs Amazon (Terenure)
• Tuesday 16th July: PWC vs Workday (Park Avenue)
• Wednesday 17th July: Glanbia vs EY (Castleblunden)
• Thursday 18th July: Microsoft vs Grant Thornton 2 (Civil Service)
• Friday 19th July: Grant Thornton 1 vs PWC (Terenure)
• Friday 19th July: Glanbia vs KPMG (Castleblunden)

The CL HBBL Final is then scheduled for Tuesday 23rd July at 6.00pm in Park Avenue when the 2024 trophy and medals will be presented to the winning team company by Siobhan McBennett (CL President).

Our thanks to the host clubs – Adamstown, Terenure, Railway Union, Civil Service and Kilkenny.
