Congratulations to Mark and Chris who were runners up in the Main League Pairs Final today. A great result when you consider the pair who beat them were John Gladstone and Andrew Hudson (who won the World Pairs Championships, held in Belgium, a week ago )! The East Williamston duo lost on the last end but a final result of 6-8 was a very respectable score. As runners up Mark and Chris will now go on to play in the Welsh pairs tournament in Llandrindod Wells.
Congratulations both and it just goes to show that all that practice does pay off!!

Congratulations to our very own Colin & Lorraine Phillips who have won the Friendly League Pairs Tournament!
The Tournament was held at Heatherton, today, where 20 teams from across the Friendly League took part. Three teams represented East Williamston: Cliff & Paula Jacobs, Mandy Cresswell and Fran Harper-Green and Colin & Lorraine Phillips. Unfortunately Covid meant that Theresa & Phill Painting had to miss the competition. Each team played 3 matches in the first round and, after successfully passing the first round, Colin & Lorraine beat New Hedges in the quarters, Skrinkle in the Semis and Norman & Idris from St Johns in the final. A great achievement! Mark, Mandy and Chris took part in the Main League Triples Tournament today at Heatherton.
Competition was tight with the opposition predominantly from the top three teams in the league, most of whom are County and National level players. Despite this they put up a good fight and came 7th overall. We were at Llanteg for our final away Friendly League match of the season. Llanteg set off with a strong performance in the singles beating Colin 20-0. Next up were Theresa and Phill P in the pairs who came away with the win. Sharon, Mark and Fran gave a strong performance in the Threes but after a closely fought game Steve, Kym, Lorraine and John were sadly defeated.
Unfortunately the heavy defeat in the singles gave Llanteg the shot advantage and the resultant 2 bonus points. End Result: Loss to East Williamston 4 - 6 Llanteg with 22 shots to their 34 Singles L 0 - 20 Pairs W 6 - 4 Threes W 12 - 4 Fours L 4 - 6 |
