Results

Once again our competiiton was well supported by local players and visitors from the rest of the country. Richard Aynsley and William Coughlan took on organising and umpiring duties respectively, however there was little need for either on the day.

This was a 2-day, 4-round, 400AP event using the +100 scoring system. Once again visitors from Belfast and Dublin attended, everyone had a great time and the games all proceeded smoothly.
