| STEVE BULLOCK and MARK NEWBY ... hat-trick of successive pairs finals |
Mark Sayer gained a memorable win over hot to trot Rob Dicken in the opener before Ian Paecock increased the advantage.
Josh Lee put the hosts right back in the contest as he amassed a massive haul of 122 points but captain Mick Bunting restored the Bolehill advantage and that saw them over the line despite the efforts of Dicken and Lee in the concluding doubles leg.
Alfreton Palmer Morewood will be the final opposition, as they defeated Belper Strutt Club courtesy of a sterling team performance, 337-154.
Meanwhile, the Jimmy Harper Plate semi finals saw wins for Edgefold No 1, who held on by nine points on the final black 275-266 against Bolehill No 1 after taking a 51 points advantage from the opening two frames.
Rob Muxlow was one of the victors, and also took the final black after Mark Gwynne Jones and Ian Birks had almost pulled it out of the fire.
Matlock Golf Club defeated Matlock Club 359-273 with Ian McKay notching three breaks of 20+ en route to amassing 95 points while Keith Manlove and Graham Jones (30 break) enjoyed a high scoring encounter which went to the home captain 92-84.
Steve Bullock and Mark Newby reached the final of the Denis Morton Pairs Handicap Trophy for the third successive season and will be hoping to go one better than their runners-up spot of the last two years after they accounted for Neil Parkinson and Rob Muxlow 3-1.
