KENT TEAMS - 15.1.12
Riley's Gillingham Snooker Club

BUSHWACKETT are the new Kent Teams champions. There were 7 teams that entered on the day and Danny Bush, Steve Wagon and Marc Cackett proved to be too strong for the others.

In the final they played the Committee team which was Adrian Frisby, Finlay Palmer and Neil Jefferis and beat them 4-1 to take the £105 winners prize. This has created a 4-way tie at the top of the Player of the Year table with our two big competitions still to play. Don't forget to get your entries in.

 
KENT PAIRS - 11.12.11
Riley's Folkestone Snooker Club

Winners: Steve Wagon & Marc Cackett
Runners-up: David Rimer & Danny Bush

Congratulations to Steve and Marc, winning the Pairs Championships for the second time. We had 9 pairs make the journey to Folkestone to compete and each match was played as a best of 5 frames. There were some very strong partnerships and David and Danny reached the final without dropping a frame but Steve and Marc proved to be too good for them this time and ran out 3-1 winners. It was a relief for Steve whose run of 6 consecutive runner-up trophies inspired our new Player Of The Year Award. The monkey is finally off his back and the 30 POTY points he and Marc both earned, gives them a good start in the quest to be the inaugural winner. Will they be able to stay ahead of David and Danny who got 20 points each for their efforts? Only time will tell.

KENT BILLIARDS - 20.11.11
Victoria Snooker Club, Tunbridge Wells

Andy Phillips (pictured right) took the Kent Billiards crown for a record breaking 6th time defeating Neil Jefferis in the final. We had 13 entries on the day so ran a Round Robin with 2 groups of 4 players and a group of 5. The group winners were Neil, Steve Roberts and Michael Wright. Michael had managed to beat Andy in the group stage but Andy still qualified for the semi-finals as he had the highest average points score of the players that finished second in the groups. Andy then beat Steve in the first semi-final, played over an hour, and Neil beat Michael. It looked like Andy was going to run away with the final until Neil fought back with a break of 76 to put him only 2 points behind with a couple of minutes left. A careless shot though let Andy back on to the table and he was able to extend his lead to 18 points when the time ran out with the scores at 212 - 194. Andy won £100 and gained 30 POTY points whilst Neil got £50 and 25 points.

KENT UNDER 21s - 16.10.11
Petts Wood Snooker Club

It is with some sadness that we have to announce that the Under 21s 2011 did not take place as we only had ONE entrant! Poor old Philip O'Kane turned up looking forward to competing as one of the favourites for this event and yet he was the only player to attend so the competition had to be abandoned, the first time in KCBSA history. However the silver lining for Phil is that he does pick up 10 Player of the Year Points for putting in an appearance. Let's hope this is not the sign for things to come and next year we will have a much better turn out from the youngsters.

KENT SNOOKER VETERANS - 16.10.11
Petts Wood Snooker Club

Winner: Stephen Hills
Runner-up: Max Bell

As last year we had a force of 10 players competing for the Veterans honours. Last year's runner-up, Stephen Hills went one better this time round capturing the top prize beating Max Bell in the final held at the very welcoming Petts Wood Club. Stephen collected £60 for his efforts along with 25 Player of the Year points whilst Max took home £40 and 20 POTY Points. Let's see how those valuable points stack up at the end of the season. It's worth pointing out that Alex Sommerville played Pat Hughes in a second round match and their combined age was 164!
