SEMI-FINALS
Back on track following last weekend’s Jubilee celebrations and the Semi-finals of the PARKHOUSE Pairs alongside our normal club session.
Halwell who squeezed into the semis as the best runner up were up against the undefeated NA Condors. Chris Dunn defeating Bob Parkins saw Halwell into an early lead, but that was the only point they managed as Dan Webster-Hall kept up his 100% record with wins over both Mark Smith and Chris Dunn. Bob Parkins victory over Mark Smith clinching the final spot for the Condors.
The other semi-final pitched the winners of the Wobbly Table Division, Taverners, with the Knackered Chair champs, D.A.R.T.S (does anybody remember the score). Colin Harrop got the Taverners off to a good start defeating Mike Dummett, and Martin Dilkes followed up with a win over Tim Shears. Taverners needed just one more victory for a place in the final. Mike Dummett fought back for the D.A.R.T.S. defeating Martin Dilkes. Colin Harrop took the Taverners into the final with a win over Tim Shears and then joined Martin Dilkes to take the final doubles and a 4-1 win.
So next weeks final will be between the Condors and Taverners.
