Canterbury A Grade Snooker Championship
Held over the weekend, a small but quality field of 14 contested the 73rd Canterbury Snooker Championship at the home of snooker at Cuthberts Green.
Section play was completed on Saturday with defending champion Gary Gillard dropping just the 1 frame to be top qualifier. Mark Canovan, 5 time champion, also qualified despite losing a match to Elima Pernali. Others to qualify for the knock out stage of the tournament were Les Winter, Bill Earle, John Gower, Graham Nobbs, Kelly Pritchard and Elima Pernali. Highest break of the day was 54 by Mark Canovan.
Sunday saw the Plate event for the non qualifiers kick off with Dylan Englebretson winning the final in a hard fought match over George Robertson 3-2 on the black ball.
The main event saw Nobbs win the first frame over Gillard before Gillard got into gear winning the next 3 frames and raising the bar in the high break stakes with a well compiled 67 clearance.
