41 players braved the rapidly cooling temperatures on Saturday for the Mid-Season Singles Trophy Tournament. Many thanks to all those who attended and helped with organisation (especially Ronan, Bernard, Lenny and Russell)
The Upper Bracket was taken by the potting machine otherwise known as Sam Higgins. He saw off a spirited challenge from JJ Kon, who had a superb tournament.
The Lower Bracket was won by the lowest ranked player to join the tournament on Saturday, Andy Chun from Sweet Life. He beat the very useful Carnival Lee in the final and in doing so jumped to the top of the most improved players list.
The full results are as follows:
Upper Bracket:
1st Place: Sam Higgins (Scrooge Pub Wonky Triangles)
2nd Place: JJ Kon (JR Pub The Ace)
3rd Place: Rickie Ball (Shenanigans Boomtown Rats)
