Robert Rickman won the Ken Hewison Winter Handicap Tournament by beating Ian Nunn 100 - 92 in the final on Sunday 7th February.
Starting from an initial handicap of 45 - 85, Robert overcame a shaky start which saw the first 6 points shared equally (making his task 18% harder). Having recovered his composure, Robert piled on the points to make up the deficit, eventually passing Ian's score in the early 90's and powered on to take the title with an 8 point margin.
In the Plate final, David Sledge gave an energetic display of running and stretching to beat Stephen Hanover 100 - 92. Starting from 75 - 65, the match progressed over a series of long rallies which kept the small crowd entertained. Both players went just about point for point but Stephen allowed David to play his own game which he did in a remarkably mistake-free manner to take the spoils.
