Bristol B-level Tournament - The Cup leaves our shores!

Final Pauline Reid from Paraparaumu, New Zealand beat Harry Midgley +25

With only 12 contestants being accepted, the players were guaranteed 5 games, with minimal lost time through hanging around. Played on the longest day of the year, the fast courts and hoops freshly set to tournament regulations of 1/16", the majority of players struggled to make progress. Very few players went to 4-back with a tidy leave. Conditions were such that even with a generous time of 3.25 hours half the games went to time.

We trust that Pauline will return to our shores next year and defend the Cup.
