John Clarke Trophy Final

There was nothing to choose between the teams and after 2 games Fegg Hayes held an 18 shot lead by virtue of their 14 handicap. In the second games, a re-match between Sam Bailey and Dan Mountford saw Dan sticking to his opponent like glue to finish with 19 while "Valeite" Amber Adams put in a solid performance scoring 18 against Oliver to win the trophy for her team.

Final - John Clarke Supplementary Competition

This was a nailbiter. Hem Heath's 15 point start was whittled away to zero by the Meir front 2 and with the final games being shared 21-19 the match ended in a tie. It was left to Hem Heath's Justin Clowes and Meir's Aiden Bradbury to step up to the plate in a 7-up decider that ended in a thrilling 7-6 win for Aiden to give the title to Meir Social No. 1
