Joe Morris Memorial proves big success!!!

Sunday, April 22, 2012
The first Joe Morris Memorial proved a huge success today with some great matches from all competitors aged 5 up to 15. A big thanks to Stan Eastwood, Vince Dragone, Dennis Bromage and John Finnemore for all their efforts in help running the event.

Cadet Boys proved a close contest with Ryan Oyler beating Chris Griffiths 3-2 in the final. It proved neck and neck throughout the match with Oyler clinching the final set 11-3. On his way to the final Ryan overcame Liam Winder 3-0 in the quarters and Callum Evans 3-0 in the semis. On Chris' way to the final he seen off Jonathan Bisp 3-0, Jac Jenkins 3-1.

Cadet girls had a small entry but still proved a challenge for all competitng. With Catlin Williams, Soffi Jenkins, Charlotte Slye and Lydia John competing in a round robin. Caitlin Williams walked away with another winners trophy for the cabinet and a silver for Charlotte Slye. Big battle for 2nd place between Soffi and Charlotte Slye with Charl just pipping it in the 5th. Huge well done to Lydia John also still only 10 but gave all the girls a scare with some very close sets.

12 players competed in the afternoon to become Carmarthen Dragon under 13 champion. In the final group of 3 for 1st place it was between Tatsuki Dale-Thomas, Lydia John and Cade Short. Another close group that could have gone either way. First up to play were Tatsuki vs Lydia but Tats spin proved a bit tough for Lydia. Lydia lost out 0-2 but again extremely impresses with her attitude throughout all her matches. Next on was Cade to meet Lydia and this proved another battle with Lyds taking the first set 12-10. Cade then stepped his game up with some big forehands to take the next 2 sets and the match. In the final match for the group it was a battle for gold. Tatsuki stepped up first to take the first set in a close 14-12. Cade picked up his match to win the 2nd 11-7 so who had the nerve to take the final set. Tats had a great start in the 3rd set with Cade creeping his way back up but again Tats' use of spin proved difficult to play against and became the under 13 champion.

Was great to see a number of under 9 competitors at the first of many Joe Morris Memorial Opens. Some great performances from the Lara Whitton, Anna Hursey and Louie Evans but it was between 2 for the gold spot. Luca Caplin of Mumbles and Joseph Roberts of Cardiff played on table one but who had the nerve to take gold. Luca played out of his skin to win the first set 11-9 and the second 11-8.

Pictures will be up soon along with the video of the final. Please keep on checking for updates.
