COUNTY MIXED FOURS

The 8 qualifiers from the recent qualification competition returned to Fowey Community Leisure Centre on Sunday to compete for the County Mixed Fours title.

In the Quarter Finals Rosemary Curnow, Patsy Wakeley, Brian Wakeley & Chris Roberts (Ladock) defeated Ronald & Margaret Shillaber (Lanteglos), Sheila Flower & Robert Flower 10-6.  Gillan Cawrse (Withiel), Terry Bray (Lostwithiel), Joyce Ward (Withiel) & Peter Hamley (Lostwithiel) were 12-7 winners against Chris & Edna Cope, John  & Margaret Turner (Liskeard).  Marion & John Keers, Carol & Graham Ford (St Newlyn East) claimed a 14-4 win against Margaret Goodwin, Melba Kitt, Graham Reeves & Darren Woolner (Saltash).  The final game saw Leah Sherman, Richard Brown, Linda Martin & Gerald Fisher (Illogan) take a 15-3 win against Barbara James (Dobwalls), Marilyn Stewart, Henry Kendall, Arthur Hambley (Withiel).

In the semi finals Peter Hamley’s team held a 1 shot lead over Chris Roberts’ team but a misjudged final wood from Hamley gave away two shots in turn giving Roberts a 9-8 victory and a place in the final.  The second semi saw Gerald Fisher’s team defeat Graham Ford’s 10-5.

In a closely fought final the score read 8-8 going into the last end, Fisher chose not to bowl the final wood of the game despite not being 100% sure he held shot.  After a few tense moments Fisher’s decision not to bowl was proven correct as the umpire measure went in his favour by a matter of millimetres.

INTER COUNTY CHAMPIONSHIP

On Saturday Cornwall’s ‘A’ Team travel to Bristol to start their defence of the ESMBA Inter County A Team Consolation title against Warwickshire.
