SEAN IS AT THE DOUBLE ONCE MORE!

ANOTHER Bolehill double for quickfire format specialist SEAN O'SULLIVAN.

A GOOD TIME was had by all at the recent Christmas Party Night which saw quickfire games of snooker, darts, dominoes and crib contested by a decent turnout of club members.
And once again it was Reapsmoor-based Sean O'Sullivan who came to the fore over the short match format, as he did the snooker-darts double after achieving the same feat at the alternative games night in November.

With all snooker matches up to the final played with just three reds, it really was anyone's to win but there was no stopping Sean as he came though matches with Jonathan Hopkinson, Andrew Brough and then Ian Peacock in the final (the only frame played with a full pack).

Chairman Alan Hopkinson also turned back the clock with some fine potting to achieve a noteworthy semi final appearance.

In the darts event, Sean defeated Ian (again), Alan and then Mick Bunting in a high quality final by 3 legs to 2 which featured plenty of good scoring throughout.

And there was almost a hat-trick as Sean was only edged out in the final of the dominoes by Andrew Brough who had earlier defeated three Hopkinsons along the way, David, Jonathan and Dan!

There was still the crib to be decided and this time Andrew had to give best in the final to Ian Peacock, who himself came through tests against Dan and Jonathan on his way to the victory roster.

A very extensive buffet was provided by club members which meant some very full stomachs and no doubt leftovers for the dog on returning home!!

Earlier in the week, the J Hall Trophy (Bolehill Billiards Handicap) was won by Ricki Slack, who beat yes, you've guessed it - Sean O'Sullivan - in the final by 125-83.
