Scratch Cup

September 16 saw the first Trefloyne Challenge Knockout Trophy commence. This was made up from the top eight scorers from this year's club championships. The quarter-finals were as follows: Ben Price (seeded 1) v Andrew Burgess (8). Ben won, taking him through to the semi-finals. Graham Willcocks (4) v Martin Yates (5). Martin won, taking him through to play Ben. James Maxwell (2) v Graham Blum (7). James won a place in the semis against Dylan Phillips (seeded 3), who beat Matthew McMann (6). The semi-finals were played on October 7. Ben beat Martin and got himself a place in the final against James, who beat Dylan. The final was played last Saturday and, despite the rain, the two young men had a good game. Ben went on to win the trophy 3 and 2. Well done to everyone.
