A win in the opening round

The Federation of North-West London Camera Clubs has twelve member
clubs and runs an annual competition. The competition is divided into 4
pools of three clubs, drawn randomly each year, and there are 3 rounds
between the three clubs in each pool. Each club enters 5 (or 6 in the
first round) prints and 5 (or 6 in the first round) projected images
into each round, totalling 16 prints and 16 PDIs in all. Images are
marked out of 20, and the judge awards 'stars' to 2 prints and 2 PDIs
in each round. The starred images go forward to Best Print and Best PDI
competitions at the NWFed Finals, even if the club doesn't reach the
finals. Total scores for each club in each round are added together to
determine the overall winner. The winners of each of the 4 pools go
forward to a semi-final in January, in which 9 prints and 9 PDIs from
the original 16 are entered. The winners of the semi-finals then meet
in the Final in February.

This year we will be competing against
Watford CC and Northolt & District CC.
On the 20th of November EHHPS
