Snooker
2020 Championships completed
After a two year delay there was great reliefwhen the 2020 Championships were completed last week-end. The Cusack dynasty's grip on the Bunny Carr Trophy was broken when Harry Alvarez-O'Neill proved to be too clinical when defeating his father Gerry in the singles final.
The Luke Mahon Doubles Trophy was regained by a very efficient Gavin Fitzgerald and partner Damien Morris who scored comfortably over an unusually out-of-sorts Mick Slattery/ Gerry Lawlor pairing.
The 2021 season was a blank and it is anticipated that the current 2022 season will be back on schedule by year's end with a packed Autumn programme of events.
To achieve this ambition it is expected that all the events will be match scheduled as distinct from the cutomery casual fixture arrangements.
Thursday Night Blitz continues at 8pm.
March Hares League is underway and finishes by 25th March 2022.
