Karl hit early form from the off with a 38 break first visit followed by another 38 break second visit, taking the frame 84 – 6. Going into the second frame and after an early scoring visit from Ryan, Karl again got in to his stride making a 72 break, missing the 3rd from last red to take the frame 115 – 15. Into the third and after an early 28 break by Karl, the frame became a bit scrappy and after chances for both players, Karl eventually ran out winning 71 – 15 and sealing a 3 – 0 win.
Sincere thanks from myself and the players to Martyn Le Gallais who refereed both matches and to Byron Le Cornu who was on scoreboard duty. It really is appreciated.
The Snooker final will take place on Thursday 16th March @ 7.30pm at the First Tower Institute and will be refereed by Howard Smith.
If you can the JBSA would love to see as many people as possible to come and support the players in what hopefully should be an entertaining final.
