ALL-MATLOCK FINAL TO TAKE PLACE FOR CAPTAINS CUP

ROB DICKEN sealed the deal for EDGEFOLD

EDGEFOLD and MATLOCK GOLF CLUB will meet in the end of season Captains Cup team final after they came through this week's respective semi final clashes with Crich Comrades No 2 and Bolehill Institute No 2 in good style.

Sam Lavelle and James Travis had Edgefold off to a flyer at Crich before Josh Lee's 57-54 victory had them 26 points to the good with a couple of frames to go.
Rob Dicken's 32 point verdict put the Tramwaymen well and truly on the back foot and despite late resistence from Ady Lowe and Duncan Harwood in the doubles, there was no stopping the Matlock cuemen.

Golf Club scored a 334-257 win with Ian McKay successful in both singles and doubles legs and only Mick Bunting successful for the hosts.

A couple of re-arranged T & M Motors Snooker League games also took place as Crich No 2 doubled up to take on Whitworth Institute and fell 3-2 despite Ady Lowe again showing his mettle with a run of 30 and wins in each of singles and doubles legs. David Hobson top scored for the visitors.

Bolehill No 1 also defeated Crich No 1 3-2 with Ian Birks and Nick Berry top scoring for each side.

In the Jimmy Harper Plate first round, Crich No 1 (also playing twice) enjoyed better fortunes with a 292-233 victory over Belper Strutt Club (John Smith amassing 91 points) while Tom Broughton's 46 break and 103 points haul was the combined highlight of Alfreton Palmer Morewood's 296-252 verdict over Matlock Club.
