A good turnout of 18 players for our latest Sponsored Sunday and that was with a few regulars missing.

It was very much the man in form Ray Gocke (+40) who once again took out the prize. Ray has seen his Sunday handicap tumble by 26 points from +56 to the new level of +30 thanks to winning 2 main Comps and winning 2 Consolation Comps in the last 5 Sunday events. The unlucky victim this time was Peter Watt (-10).

In the consolation comp it was Graham Wilson (+15) who beat Des Turner OAM (+25).

Well done to all players and to David Ross who ran the event in the absence of Jimmy Thomson.

It was a long day yesterday at the FNCSA Handicap Snooker Championship in Ballina.

We had 25 players contesting the best of 3 frame knockout. We got underway at 8.30am and it was after 11.00pm before we got our winner.

Congrats to Ted Walsh (+30) from Ballina who won 2-1 against Banora player Tim Ashcroft (+15).

There were many 2-1 results and black ball deciders during the day and well done to all the players for their efforts.

Congrats to Ted Walsh who played well and got better as the day played out.

With NSW State Juniors underway this weekend Adam Grunsell was our sole Banora representative this year out of 25 entrants competing in both u/18 u/16 Snooker and Billiards.

Adam had managed to qualify through to the Semi finals in Under 18s before loosing 2/0 with opponent clearing the colour in both frames.

In Under 16s due to tied frame scores Adam was in a 3 player black ball shootout and nailed 2 length of the table screamers to now reach Semi finals of that event as well.

Hopefully Adam’s success can inspire some of our other juniors to come along next year.

We had a big day of Billiards at the FNCSA Handicap Billiards Championships today in Ballina.

12 players contested this in 2 groups of 6 with the top 2 of each group reaching the semi final stage.

In semi final 1 - Cooper Thomson beat Grant Schirmer and in the other semi final it was Ray Wilcher who got the better of Peter Campbell (who was a last minute reserve and performed fantastically).

In the 60 minute final, refereed by Desmond Turner, Ray had control for the most of the match and kept Cooper quiet to win by 236-200.
