THE draws for the latest rounds of the individual competitions and semi finals of the six red team cup were made recently.

If absolutely necessary, you can re-schedule it within an extra 7 days, failing agreement you can apply to the match secretary for a further 7 days to play it.
If someone doesn't contact the opposition and then fails to show, they are eliminated obviously.
Contact relevant team captains or the secretary for any required contact info.

DUNCAN STEERS EDGEFOLD No1 OVER LINE AT ALFRETON

DUNCAN HARWOOD

TWO of the teams jousting towards the top reaches of the T & M Motors Snooker League clashed as Alfreton Palmer Morewood No 3 entertained Edgefold No 1 of Matlock and it was the visitors who emerged victorious with a 3-2 victory to take back home.
James Travis set them on the right path with a 79-43 verdict in the opener and Sean Dobney (25 break) made it 2-0 after a hard-fought contest, inflicting only the second defeat of the season on Jack Lowe.
Recent signing Alex Fisher pulled one back for the hosts defeating Duncan Harwood, who then had to turn out again under the 10pts penalty handicap with the Matlock side one man short.
However, he defied this with some aplomb scoring breaks of 36 and 20 to produce his best performance of the season and see his side over the line.
The Lowes, Ady and Jack, reduced the deficit to the minimum margin in the concluding pairs clash.

Last week's leaders Tansley Potters continued in winning form, 3-2 at Belper Strutt Club, as Radford Neville, aided by six in-offs from his opponent, top scored with 81pts whilst Paul Jarrett impressed most for the hosts. Steve Hawkins and Gray Astle took the deciding doubles leg.

However, Alfreton Palmer Morewood No 2 zoomed back to top spot as they played one of their games in hand and took 5-0 and 4-1 victories over Edgefold No 2 and Crich Comrades respectively.
Steve Donner (century points haul and breaks of 40 and 31) starred in the aforementioned clash whilst Ben Monk, with runs of 36 and 21, and Jamie Rowland were in fine form in the rearranged game.
Rob Mulliss, with breaks of 33 and 22, continued his run of break-building prowess in the doubles.

Crich had earlier been defeated 3-2 at Alfreton No 1 where Guy Taylor and Phil Longden secured the deciding pairs clash after Mulliss had hit them with blasts of 50 and 27 in the singles.

And Matlock Golf Club went 3-0 up early doors but had to settle for a 3-2 win over Bolehill Institute. Chris Parker top scored for the hosts as Graham Jones won his seventh match in eight games whilst Ian Birks and Keith Robertson combined well in the doubles leg to score 81 points overall.

In the Elliott Carpets Billiards League, Bolehill Institute defeated Tansley Potters 12-8 with Steve Hawkins edging out Andrew Brough 150-140 in the closest game of the night.
