In the semi finals there was a very close game with Pam Kennedy’s team defeating Denise Prentice’s team 23 – 22. This was an enthralling game and was anybody’s till the last end. It was a spectator’s delight.

The other semi had its moments of excitement too, with the scores very close in the course of the game and as happens sometimes we saw Michelle Swan’s team pulling away to defeat Carol Caldwell’s team 29 – 13. The score not indicative of the game.

The final game played out very competitively. Michelle Swan’s team d Pam Kennedy’s team 23 – 18. This too was a very close game, right to the last few ends and could easily have gone to an extra end. Congratulations on a well played game to all players.
