Jason Byrnes finished qualifying strongly in the last 2 games (278, 269) to post a 1175 total (235 avg) to lead the 31 players into the Scratch section final in what was a very low scoring event with only 12 players breaking the 200 average mark. Theresa Watts played very consistently over the 5 games to lead the Handicap section on 1156 incl. handicap.
In the 1st Scratch semi-final it was a case of who made the least amount of mistakes in the match and with John Wilson failing to convert a easy spare in the final frame, he opened up the door Jason to take the match by 171 to 165. Chris Sloan qualified in 2nd spot courtesy of a 297 final game came up against a brick wall when Alan McDonnell opened up 7 strikes in a row and went on to post a 279 to Chris’s 192 in the 2nd semi-final. Alan continued the good form in the Final winning his first event of the season by 225 to Jason’s 193.
Both semi-finals in the Handicap section saw strong finishes with Theresa Watts taking the match by 229 to Elaine Lalor’s 197, and Paolo DiTofano striking out for a 250 against Arunis Bulnis’s 219. Theresa took control of the final from the start and closed out the match with 5 strikes in a row for a 286 to win he second event of the season over Paolo’s 214.
