The quarter finals of the Handicap Competition took place last night (Monday 18th February)
All four matches were fiercely contested and produced some thoroughly entertaining rallies.
There was virtually nothing between Keith Gray and Mark Knott, the pair having already played each other several times leading up
to the competition, it could have gone either way however Keith got over the line first winning 21-14 in the third.
Don Pattison showed his experience and made good use of his points advantage over Nick Fecitt who just couldn't make
ground. Don took it 21-16, 21-18.
Both Mark Livingstone and Ian Morton managed to overturn their deficit to catch Chris Brock and Andy Lawrence
respectively but both had to battle hard to do so. Mark beat Chris 21-17 in the third while Ian beat Andy 21-19, also in the third. They don't come closer than this.
A big thank you to Les Carr who marked 2 of the games and to those spectators who made it an event.
The draw for the semi finals, Dave Buckle doing the honours, came out with Keith Gray (+4) playing Don Pattison (+6) and
Mark Livingstone (-8) playing Ian Morton (-10).
Both of these semi's will be played on Monday 25th February, 6.40pm start. The final is on Friday 1st March, also 6.40pm.
