TELFORD SNOOKER LEAGUE

Match Report - 2013/14

 

First Division.

Hadley A played Anstice A this week with Hadley trying to ratain their first didvision status. Pretty difficult with only four players? The first match saw Steve Clayton play Ian Duffy, and but for a few missed chances Steve could have won this one, but the ever steady Ian claimed the first frame. Mick Hughes had an inspired game against Neil Price with Neil only having bad luck throughout the frame. Having said that, take nothing away from Micks frame, he played really well with some great potting. It seems to becoming a habit for Kieth Price and Alan Turner, but this frame went only one way with Keith potting superbly and putting together a 48 break on the way. Last up was Andy Kendrick v Darren Weston. Darren potted well, and Andy couldn't get going. Next week Shifnal should decide our fate!

Second Division.

As the season draws to a close (far too soon surely? Lol) Bayley Cue entertained an in form Shifnal A who finally look destined to joining the top flight next year. Bayley\'s Steve Weatherall unluckily went in off early on before Shifnal\'s Eddie Mullard stole the show compiling a superb 70 break which drew deserved applause from all 3 tables and surely puts him in the box seat for the highest break prize. The next 2 frames were both won, or lost, on the black as firstly Chris Durham calmly slotted his black to level the match. In the battle of the skippers the home sides Noel Hitch was left with the dilemma play safe or risky double?? He decided on the safety option putting the black on the top cush ...unfortunately the white dropped into the middle pocket!! The 4th frame went to Andy Carson who\'s 24 break near the death sealed the win for Shifnal. Nick Carson also took the final frame to give the visitors a 4-1 win but in another enjoyable night of snooker played in great spirit it was certainly Eddie taking the plaudits.
