Snooker last Friday was sponsored by the Cowra Services Club as it was our President’s Trophy night and contested for by no less than 50 players showing the popularity of our president and the pick-your-own-partner format.

Unfortunately for Robbie and his partner Ian Core they went down to T Rowston and Col Crowe 37-18, who in turn were defeated by our first finalists Rob and Jono Gee 44-16.

They then accounted for Di Spring and Col Miller in a close match 46-40, before having a big 50-27 win over Daniel and Geoff Core to reach the final.

In the top half of the draw the two favourites were to do battle in Billy Dawes and Mark Rush up against Shayne Dawes and Tony Dowd. Billy and Mark came off second best 48-11.

Next to go by the wayside were David Ryan and Ray Salisbury 49-30.

Then after receiving a 23-point start with only eight reds, Wayne Lancaster and Richard Kelly were no match for Shayne and Tony going down 59-33.

Paul Ryan and Phil Andrews were their only hurdle for a finals berth. Shayne and Tony duly made no mistakes taking the hard-fought match 57-25.

The final, unfortunately, was a bit one-sided with the Gee combination of father and son receiving a 45-point start over a full frame.

But they weren’t able to capitalise as Shayne and Tony ran away with the night’s play 88-64.

Sunday, November 22, snooker was once again a good roll-up with 25 players striving to become our Sunday champion for another week.
