THERE was a close game in the Tavistock Snooker League between Dingle of the West Devon B and McKechnie of the Conservative Z.

It could not have been any closer, with one point separating McKechnie from Dingle in a tight frame which Dingle eventually took. This was followed by another hard fought match between Symons and Rich (senior) in which the Con Z managed to level the score with a controlled display from the former.

Next up was Mayors for Con Z who had his work cut out trying to contain Dent who took control of the game despite Mayors’ valiant fight back. Hoar never looked in trouble during his match with Bell and romped ahead with little response from Bell. It took Hodge to bring some semblance of balance to the score line with a fine win over West Devon’s Boyd to bring the final score to 3-2 in favour of West Devon B.

Elsewhere saw Conservative A in a top v bottom game with Golf A and a predictable whitewash by the former.

Apart from a standard close frame from Babb over Hough, the rest was plain sailing for Con A.

West Devon A produced a fine result against Golf A with a solid 4–1 win. Pick of the games was a good showing for young Jamie Ninnis taking WD A’s Heathman to the wire before going down; there was also a pleasing to the eye 39 break for West Devon A ’s Douggie Brookes.
