Record 82 players take part in the Zelta rudens novuss tournament in Pociems

The traditional novuss tournament Zelta rudens took place at the Pociems culture house on 26 September. This year it attracted more players than ever before, with 82 participants in total.

The record is not only about the overall number. Eighteen women also took part, so female players were clearly represented among the novuss enthusiasts.

A cosy atmosphere and a birthday

As is usual at this tournament, the competition went ahead in a friendly, relaxed mood. One of the enthusiasts present was celebrating a jubilee, so many good wishes were voiced during the event. Everyone was also treated to a tasty kliņģeris, a traditional Latvian festive pastry.
