Paul Mendelsohn, our milkman, teamed up with his brother Mike to win the World Quoits Championship pairs at Beamish museum. Mike also won the singles. A full report is in the Whitby Gazette.Quoits is a traditional sport played in most of the villages around Whitby and can be a pleasant way of spending a Monday or Thursday evening watching one of the league matches at local pubs.
Quoits appears to be an easy game and the rules are quite simple but the precision with which these guys throw a 6lb ring of steel is amazing to watch.
