The first team is in a promotion spot in the 3rd Bundesliga
The Gräfenhausen skat club can look back on a successful third league match day. The first team, in particular, caused jubilation in the 3rd Bundesliga South division.
First team in second place
With a record of 19 wins and 8 losses, the Gräfenhausen team is currently in second place, which qualifies them for promotion to the 2nd Bundesliga. After narrowly avoiding relegation last season, this is a great success for the club.
The second team is currently in 15th place in the South Hessian State League.
Exciting match day with a strong finish
Three series of 48 games each are played on each match day. Four teams, each with four players, compete directly against each other.
For the skat players, the day of play remained exciting until the very end:
- Series 1: 4095 game points and two ranking points
- Series 2: 4139 game points and two additional ranking points
- Series 3: 3600 game points and three ranking points
The third series in particular developed into a close, neck-and-neck race. Shortly before the end, skat player Martina Schmidt secured the decisive points with a successful Grand with four points.
Since the allotted playing time had already expired, no further games could be scored. The electronic scoring system "Skat-Guru," developed by Sascha Dechert, prevents players from exceeding the official playing time.
Monthly ranking and club match day
Holger Witt won the club's internal monthly ranking in April again with 8640 points, ahead of Wolfgang Schroth (8243 points) and Thomas Brückner (8223 points).
The results of the 18th club match day:
- Helmut Veith – 2203 points
- Wolfgang Schroth – 2129 points
- Sascha Dechert – 1834 points
- Lutz Benz – 1381 points
- Frank Delp – 1381 points
Lutz Benz finished fourth ahead of Frank Delp due to the higher number of games played as a soloist.
Guests are welcome at the practice session
The skat players' practice evening takes place every Wednesday at 7 p.m. in the clubhouse "Gamebox" at Schneppenhäuser Straße 5 in Gräfenhausen. Guests and interested parties are welcome.
