May 2022 Pool Update

Wednesday 4 May, 2022

Hi guys and gals,

Good news everyone – POOL TABLES ARE NOW OPEN.

Now that we have gone to “Orange” we can now get back into playing some pool, which is exciting news and news that we have all been waiting for.

March was still a relatively quiet month, but Canterbury 8 Ball held two tournaments. The 2022 Early Bird Singles as well as the Molly Memorial Drawn Pairs.

In the Main flight event of the B Grade, Corien Simpson took this out the final winning 3 – 2 over Barry Jones from the Kaiapoi Club.

The Molly Memorial was taken out by our own Pool Section President, Pauline Laugesen and her partner Steve Collier winning 4 – 3 over Srinath Herath and Cameron Spriggs
Interclub has started for all division 1 teams, with the Premiers, division 2 & 3 kicking their season off on the 26 / 27 April.

Hornby is hosting the South Island Ladies & Open in June 22, and this is fast approaching. The pool section is excited to be able to hold this tournament so there will be a lot more info in months to come regarding this event. If you are wanting to play, then you need to get your entry in by writing your name on the entry form which is on the pool section notice board.

Regards,
Hornby Pool Section
