The WSL Summer Season 2011 has reached its final stage, the Play Offs. During the Play Offs the scores do not add to the players’ personal average anymore.
Therefore it is time to award the best scorers of the WSL their points for the World Ranking.

Torben Hussmann, playing for “The Elite Squad II” managed to defend his title from the Winter Season with a remarkable average of 202.17, followed closely by another young man: Michael Hirsch (USA) who scored an average of 200 for his team “The Young Ones & the Old Guy”.

Earl Ball from “The Measurables” finished 3rd with an average of 197, climbing back to #2 in the World Ranking. 4th is German SpeedShuffleboard expert Willi Wüsthoff from “President’s Choice” with 193.50 and 5th is Jim Barnes (USA) from “Zephyrhills Four” with an average of 190.71.

Although it is possible to be a member of more than one team, a player can only appear once in the top 8 category. That helped Steve Barnett (Zephyrhills Four), Dieter Hussmann (The Measurables) and Chuck Moulton (Zephyrhills SBC#1)to also earn some points for the World Ranking.

In contrast to the Winter Season, the women did not make it to the top 8 this time. Let us hope they have their come back in the upcoming Winter Season 2011/12 that starts on October 1.

Before we start the next season, stay tuned for the results of this season’s Play Offs. The semifinals will be finished on Friday and results published on Saturday.

Please see below for the players that met the requirements of a minimum of six matches.
