RICH FISH NETS 2ND 'WORLD' SINGLES CATCH
EPIC BATTLE ON ICONIC KEMPTOWN TABLE DEFINES 'ASTONISHING' AFTER-MIDNIGHT TOADS WIN

The climax of this year's 3rd Annual World Toads Singles Championship 2024 capped a marathon eight-and-half hour-long tournament with a stunning final between former champions Richard 'Fish' Crossland and Ed Hill, writes Jim Rosentode.
Fisherman 'Rich', from Lewes and who plays for the Rodmell and Caxton B teams, pushed Ed Hill of the Round Georges pub in Kemptown right to the wire in a 4-3 classic.
Organiser Jonny Wills observed: ''You have to remember Richard was beaten by Ed in '22 in the first round, when Ed won. Then in '23 Richard won the final. And then they go and meet this year in the final. Amazing, it's real game of toads rivalry stuff.''

SURPRISED TO WIN
Hill needed a four out to take the title and landed his first coin precariously in the volcano rim of the Hand in Hand toads table, tilted at an angle like a UFO in a moon crater. This forced Ed to opt for a shot to take them both down, but Ed's landed at the back, missing the target of the wedged coin, and spun off the table.
Richard then stepped in to deliver his own four out with two confident Doigian lobs into the hole. Dazed, he then immediately announced: ''I'm astonished to have won that.''
HOLING AND LANDING SKILL
Crossland's game was praised for some 'amazing' precision landing on the infamous Hand in Hand table, listed as number 5 in the WTSC, a lead renowned in Toads circles for causing players issues in the out-zone from eight down.
For the uninitiated the total odd-score of 31 means players have to find find an odd one score, despite being a bucket lead spanning three fingers wide and four fingers long, it is notorious for the difficulty in landing a one, called a 'Sauron' by locals for the unsettling eye made by the number drawn on the board.

TABLE DEBATE
Throughout the venue there was mixed and heated discussion that the Hand in Hand pub table from Kemptown - pictured above - was both too easy and too difficult. But as well as the length of 7ft 6 and ¼'' from the front, the well-played lead cambered on all four sides, resembling the inflated skirting of a hovercraft. With the volcano-lead hole, the naturally-worn, exposed wood inside challenged many players to adjust to hole in a more measured fashion.
TABLE FIVE BALL DRAW
Despite playing it in his run to the final, 2022 Champion Hill wasn't keen on playing on 'Table 5' again, but as fate had it, he pulled out the number five ball in the draw. After the match Ed stated:
''It was a hell of a night, and a cracking final. I'm still coming to terms with not smashing a four to take it all but we'll get there.''
Both players were mic'd up for a documentary being made on the game, with both expressing a hope their numerous expletives would be bleeped out in the event the documentary film is aired.

PLAYERS FROM HOME AND ABROAD
A montage of flags represented the counties and towns taking part, and toading communities were represented by players from Mid-Sussex, Lincoln, West Sussex, Lewes, Brighton and London.
The nation flag of Germany was also shown to represent participants Guido Moller and Leo Agthe who had flown especially from Hamburg to play. Guido was asked to present the Toadstone Trophy to the winner. He declared it was touching honour to be asked, adding: ''I had a wonderful weekend in Lewes. Got up at 7:30am on Sunday - and arrived home at 22:30 - it was a long day of traveling, but really worth it!''
LARGEST SINGLES EVENT
Draws were held before each phase which proved trickier to deliver as the evening progressed. But it failed to derail the event and even gave players a breather between the intensity of matches.
As Jonny pointed out: ''While growing the event we are also finding out what this is. What the WTSC was on Saturday hadn't been done before, as it's the biggest Toad-in-the-Hole singles tournament in the history of the game. We can only take what we learned and improve the facilitation.''
RECORD TAKINGS
The event was held at St Mary's Supporters Club who confirmed the bar had done one of the best nights takings-wise they could remember.
''Frankly it was a behemoth but momentous, and all the people there made the event what it was,'' added Wills. ''We literally dropped a few balls, but we hoped that in the good-natured spirit of our intentions, it raised a smile.''

AROUND THE TOURNAMENT
In other rounds newly-seeded Laura Bellamy-Mockford bagged a quarter final slot, losing out to the much-touted Jake Saunders. He was subsequently scalped by Hill, with a fair degree of sledging and banter exchanged during the match.
Fourteen-year-old Harry Douch caused a stir with a great run to the Last Sixteen, while Black Horse landlord and Lewes seed Declan Rowell had to forgo his Round of 32 spot for a work emergency handing fellow landlord Ian Macquire a bye.
New seed and table-maker Noel Wilkins justified his rank by making the semi-finals, earning him, along with Jake, Ed and Richard beer prizes donated by Cloak and Dagger.
The event was hosted by WTSC organisers Jonny Wills and Gemma John, who showed a popular fifteen-minute Orientation Film with all sixty-four players in pseudo-sports profiles, dubbed movie footage and an opening sequence filmed in a Kemptown church by Chairman Benton Wieldy set to the music of Prince's Let's Go Crazy, converted to Let's Toads Crazy.

Brighton 'Holecano' Sets Lewes Ablaze As Round Georges Take the Top Prize


Congratulations to The Round Georges pub in Kemptown, Brighton for winning the Lewes International Toad in the Hole Competition 2024 aka the 'Worlds'.
They took fellow Brighton team Modern Tossers: Cody, Dan, Rob and Jamie 3-0 in a lively final that feature a packed horseshoe of spectators.
In a seismic shift for the game of toads Brighton finally broke through the Lewes-dominated event, fielding around thirty sides, nine of which finished in the last sixteen. Five of those teams stemmed from Kemptown, an area of the city with no less than seven toadhouses

Holing Game Over Landing Safe
The Brighton game style is has been known for it's hole-centric or gung-hole approach, whereas in Lewes and District the strategy has always been to accept a safer, strategic points game.
And last night The Round Georges featured three big toad-holers, Ed Hill - World Toads Singles 2022 and twice Bognor Open Champion, Joe Holmes an RGs House Champion and Simon Barris, twice RGs house championship finalist.

Together with landlord Stu Sampson all four were firing on all cylinders at the Corn Exchange in the centre of Lewes. The Brighton pub is known for its collection of tables and house players regularly scoring 8s.
Not a Round About Route for the RGs
On their way to the final The Round Georges managed to scalp more 'tossers' with their semis against Rob Swabey and his mid-Sussex based BN6 Tossers.
In the quarters, the RGs beat Dynamo Kemptown, a team
featuring current world and twice RGs house champion Richard Crossland, in a close match on Lane 2, featuring a hole that proved unfortunate to those trying to dig back.
Having already created an upset beating four-times Lewes World champions Rodmell Toads Club in the group stage 2-1, The Dynamos were touted to go all the way. Commenting on a nail-biter that saw DK come back from one-down, Rodmell seven-scorer Jake Saunders said: 'The last two games were final-standard, definitely'.
Other upsets included The Hole in the Wall topping former champs DCC, and 2022 winners The Black Horse not getting out of the starting gate, missing the knockout stage.

Oh, and Canada
The night saw Canadian team The Toadening cross the pond from Halifax in Nova Scotia and join us for our wonderfully competitive and absurd game in Sussex.
As their anthem goes: 'What Glorious deeds circled their brow, for their arm knew how to wield the toad'. Well, their t-shirts were great anyway.
Rumour has it their first practise lead was made of leather. Maybe we are due for another mix in the form of 'leader'? Over to Garold, Noel and Graham...

World Singles Champion for 2023 Decided in Night Reviewed as Unforgettable
This year's World Toads Singles Championship has been won by local fisherman Richard Crossland.
The WTSC hosted its second year with a tournament at private members club St Mary's Supporters Club in Lewes, featuring most of the best proponents of the game.
Richard, a popular player, beat five other players, including two seeds. Himself a seed, Richard was almost knocked out in the first round by newcomer Rob Swabey from Hurstpierpoint in a nailbiter for both which ended 3-2 to Crossland.
In the best of seven all-Lewes final, Richard beat Reg Martin 4-0 with a back and forth succession of 6s and 7s, where the match score, as usual, didn't really reflect the closeness of the frames.

Notable WTSC23 Matches
To reach the final Richard had to beat fellow 'Lewes Worlds' team-member Ben Robinson. Meanwhile, Reg avoided defeat when Marc Doig narrowly missed a four on his last visit in their semi-final.
Other notable moments at the tournament were Ed Hill being knocked out of the first round by Conal Jacks. Meanwhile, Noel Wilkins, aka Noel-in-One, delivered a series of 7s and 8s in an impressive run to the Quarters.
According to reports Elena Stevanoska, aka Elly, the tournament's first female contender, also had seed Wayne Saunders 'on the ropes' in the first round in a succession of tight games. He was later knocked out by Brighton seed Marc Doig.
'World' Toads Champion Richard hails from Lewes and also plays in the Lewes League for Rodmell, so the Toadstone Trophy is now hosted by The Abergavenny Arms, aka 'Fortress Rodmell'.

Seeded Richard was still surprised he made it through the first match. 'I hadn't met this guy before - Rob Swabey - and we were talking for ten minutes before we started. Then someone said you need to play your match. And in the warm up he scored a 7 and I thought, he's got me.'
Richard praised WTSC organisers Jonny Wills and Gemma John: 'Thank you for a great evening, one I'll remember for the rest of my life. The organisation was fantastic, the film, the draw and the whole atmosphere the tournament was played in.''
Organiser Jonny Wills stated: ’The reviews have been amazing, and we're really grateful, especially to Noel, Dec and Wayne who lent us tables and the support from across the community. Andy Sanders, for example, drove down from Lincoln and it was great to see him. He mentioned he may bring more players next year.
'We're always improving so we'll work on anything that we get negative feedback on, but at the end of the day its really up to the players to bring their best game, because they already know who they're likely to face if they want to win.'
Asked about comparisons to the toads teams worlds in April Wills countered: 'Well, that night is like ‘Toads Christmas’, and is a wonderful event. We’re not competing with it because ours is a singles tournament, it's less raucous and focused on individuals, but we would like to think we’re kicking of a New Year of Toads, just as the main winter leagues start.’
Regarding the World Singles trophy residing in Rodmell for the first time after a year spent in Brighton at the Round Georges under the care of Ed Hill, Richard's friend and teams toads world champion Wayne Saunders had a message for for future hopefuls from the city, the rest of Sussex and beyond, declaring: 'That trophy is never leaving here now.'

Rodmell Return on Best Night Yet for Team Toads
Congratulations to Rodmell for winning the Lewes Worlds 2023. They beat Lindfield Lobbers 3-1 in a final that finished just before midnight.
Jake Saunders was back on form firing quite a few sliding 8s in a tough tournament route that included a draw against Lewes League Div 1 rivals Royal Toads on the first table.
Reports suggest Rodmell put in the work to make up for 2022's shock first round exit. The win sees them crowned World Champions for the fourth time.
Best of Toad Teams
The night saw the best teams of Toads come together and many said the standard had been raised. Brighton teams continued their new presence in the game with teams such as the Toad in the Well and Modern Tossers playing late into the knockout stages. Wes Sussex's aptly named Bognor Rocks too had a fierce run, improving on the previous year.

Lovacott came all the way from Devon and Lincoln fielded another decent team, while other teams in attendance came from Dorset and Oxfordshire proving that Toads isn't just a Sussex game.
As usual the tables offered up some contentious play where teams had to dice between digging or sliding and where some holes refused to accept that the game is called Toad in the Hole.
Noisy Night
The rambunctious noise of the night also made it difficult for some Toadrunners to hear the backboard being hit, while one scorer, Tony in Lane 7, offered the innovation of a cricket-inspired dead ball sign of crossed arms for a dead toad and a fingers up' to show the toad was good. An inspired and wonderfully eccentric addition to scoring that really has to be included from now on.

There has been a lot a interest for this year after the discreet success of the 2022 tournament which saw Ed Hill crowned as champion. Many of the top exponents of the game commented that the event was one of the best they'd attended and that the venue was 'perfect for Toads'.
Most who played last year are set to return, while enquiries have come in from a number of clubs, pubs and individuals across the Toads community in Sussex and beyond.
With a view to meeting demand organiser Jonny Wills has met with the members venue St Marys in Lewes and submitted a new layout to the club's committee. The plans will utilise the entirety of the main room.
The event this year proposes to have eight tables, twice the amount of the previous year. The tables will aim to be a deliberate mix of abilities and sources, replete with their original Toads coins, tables heights, lead lengths, hole sizes and oche distances. This ensures that with a game riddled with idiosyncrasies, the best overall exponent will be revealed.
Entries are now open and £10, accounting for venue hire, organisation, expenses and access to the club for lower-than-pub-price drinks. Non-member spectators can also access the venue for £5, via the entry form or by emailing us to our DropBox for details.
The new layout also is also meant to include tables and chairs set to watch matches and enable players to have space to play their game unencumbered. As usual the only line-of-sight participants will be the toad-runners (scorers).
Jonny added: "The reviews for last year were exceptional and my sister and I are very grateful.
"It was a warm night that worked as both a celebration and connoisseurs' appreciation of the game."
