National Junior Event Swinton

2011-10-01T18:24:00.004+01:00

The first event held at Swinton Leisure Club, Manchester took place today 1st October.

The event was new on the EABA calender and marks one of the first and hopefully not the last event held at Swinton. Reg Davis currently coaches 25 under 16 players at Snooker and has only given his players 3 or 4 hours coaching at Billiards. Despite this his players gave a great show of potting and most demonstrated a good knowledge of the half ball shots.

Nearly all these players have now made 100 breaks at Snooker and are actively playing in local leagues. Despite a lack of billiards in the area they acquitted themselves well and made several decent breaks along the way.

We normally only record breaks over 30 but as the players were new to the game all breaks over 20 were recorded. Adam Stewart from Chesterfield being the most experienced player in the group went on to win the event as could be expected. But he did not have it all his own way and very nearly came unstuck in his semi final against Joshua Thomand who was leading most of the game with a great display of cannons and long potting.

In the Final again Adam struggled to find his form and after 35 minutes the scores were level when Adam ran in three consecutive breaks od 20,21,and 25 to put him 70 points clear. Jake Heyworth never recovered from this and began to miss some long pots which let Adam run to an easy victory.

In the plate final Sam Thomand defeated Dre Dean 172 to 128.

Several mid 20 breaks were recorded and the high break went to Mike Brindley in the plate of 44.

EABA Junior Finals

2011-04-19T18:24:00.008+01:00

The 2011 national Junior Billiard Finals were played at Newark Cue Club, Nottinghamshire on Sunday. Hannah Jones of Derby retained her Girls Championship defeating Kings Lynn’s Jazmin Cainey with some excellant play including a fine break of 43, while Boston’s Luke Christain became u16s Champion when defeating Chesterfields Adam Stuart.

Christain got better and better as the day progressed and was a worthy Champion, a reflection of the hard work he has put into his game over the last 2 years.

In the u19s Championship Middlesbrough’s Aaron Hatton retained his title , but by the closest of margins when defeating fellow Teessider Jonathon Snee (Stockton on Tees) by 7 points. Snee’s play had been a revelation throughout the day , easily being the form player when recording some big wins and fine breaks , however Hatton’s greater experience just gained him the upper hand in what was a very tense last 10 minutes for both boys.

These finals concluded what has been a season of growth for the Junior game nationally, with new coaching groups being established in Derbyshire and Devon, and the National Rankings having the most players ranked for 3 years.

National Ranking Win for Junior Tour 'OLD BOY'

2010-10-12T11:31:00.003+01:00

Ketterings Matt Sutton (1999 National -19's Champion) won the 2nd national ranking event of the season when defeating another Junior Tour 'Old Boy' Billy Bousfield (Stockton on Tees-2004 National -19's Champion & No 1 ranked Junior 2002-3 & 2003-4) in the Final.
Mathew also recorded an excellent break of 330 in the q/finals.

Another ex-regular on the tour Nathan Mann (No 2 ranked Junior 2003-4-Norwich) reached his first senior Q/Final where he lost to Cheshire's Geoff Brassington.

All in all it was a good day for the National Junior Tour , with current joint no 1's Aaron Hatton reaching the last 16, and James Halpin losing in the plate final to Liverpools Denis Marr.

Very well done to all current and ex-Junior Tour players on their achievements at the weekend. I am sure that the future will see many of our current players , making similar strides in to the senior game in the near future.

Middlesboroughs James Halpin turned the tables on teammate Aaron Hatton who won the 1st event at the Northern Snooker Centre in Leeds 3 weeks ago, when winning the 2nd event of the series hosted by Newarks Cue Club.
Halpin defeated Hatton 200-181 in a very ‘cagey’ final to take the 1st prize and maximum ranking points.

Kings Lynn’s Chris drew pushed Halpin hard in the semis, building up a lead after a long safety exchange which he got the better of, however the Middlesborough man edged the game by 1 point.

Luke Christain of Boston won the Plate and another Boston player Shane Drury the Subsidiary. Newcomers to the Series James Rix (Downham Mkt ) did very well to reach the Semis on his 1st appearance , while Lincolns Jem Renshaw also impressed with some excellent potting.

Many thanks to Jules and all his staff at the Club for making the Tour very welcome.
