ππ Nominated Triples Final ππ
π― Tonight seen the final of the Nominated Triples. Last years winners Arthur Gault, Grant Robson and Scot Finlayson were taking on Bob Scott, Brian Mathieson and Jim Shea.

A 5 for Scot's team got themselves back into it and after 14 ends Jim was ahead only by one at 13.12.

Today saw more Finals played and more trophies presented.
π― Gents Championship. Mark Smith who was looking for revenge after losing the Club Championship the previous day was in another final against Ross Stewart.

Mark started with a 2 in the first end but after losing the next two ends including a full house on end 3 it was 5.2 to Ross. They both went on little run of ends and after the 12 end it was all square at 10 each. Mark then never lost another end and after picking a four in the last end he won 21.10. Congratulations to Mark ππ₯

Arthur and Scot win the first 2 ends but Chloe and Jim picked up the next 2 ends to be ahead 5.4 after 4 ends. Arthur and Scot only won 2 out of the next 7 ends but it was a 3 each time for the score to be 14.10 in favour of Chloe and Jim after 11 ends. Arthur and Scot picked up a 2 at the next end to tighten the lead but Chloe and Jim responded brilliantly to win the remaining ends and winning 21.12. Massive congratulations to Chloe and Jim.
π― Club Pairs was a tight game played between Ronnie Patterson and Kevin McKay against Bob Hayles and Mark Mair. After 9 ends it was 8.7 in favour of Ronnie and Kevin.
