December 2024 – Pool Update

Sunday 1 Dec, 2024

The Pool Section held our annual prizegiving last month in association with the AGM.

The main awards were:

  • Most Improved Female – Pauline Laugesen
  • Most Improved Male – Ben Gao
  • Outstanding Female Player – Aileen Barnes
  • Outstanding Player – Paul Blackler

The Secondary Schools Pool Program was taught by John Gower, who gave up his time for a group of pupils from St Thomas’s to develop their pool skills. As well as growing the game, the Club and Section have gained some new members, as some parents have joined as a result. Thanks, John.

Summer League is well underway on Tuesday and Wednesday:

  • Tuesday competition is a tightly fought closed competition as 17 Premier and Div 1 players tussle away.
  • Wednesday Summer League is attracting 16-20 Div 2, Div 3, and new players each night. This is a relaxed way to introduce yourself to the game if you want to have a go. Front up by 6.45 pm on a Wednesday and have a few games to see how you stack up.

Happy cueing,
The Pool Section
