<i><b><span style="color: orange;">Lawrence John was the star of the show not losing a game throughout the event which showed great determination for his first School Games. He certainly made his mark amongst his opposition. His only 1 set dropped was against England South West's Billy Shilton who was fired up for the game but Lawrence secured defeat 11-7 11-7 8-11 11-9. Lawrence was to meet Billy in the final of the individual event which he secured his 2nd medal of the competition.<br />The decider for Gold or Silver was a match against England Midland. Lawrence opened the book with a convincing win 11-6 11-6 11-2 over Craig Allen. Ashley feeling the pressure of the crowd unfortunately went down 11-7 11-4 11-8. It was then down to Cellan Hall to win the Gold for Wales against a tough competitor and fellow friend Daniel Bullen, The first game went to Daniel 11-8, Cellan pulled back with a 15-13 win in the second. Daniel then won a close third game battle 13-11. The crowd were behind both teams and it was a great atmosphere but unfortunately for Wales Cellan lost the fourth 11-5. A great team performance throughout but we couldn't quite step up to the occasion. It was a great game to watch but Wales had to settle for Silver.</span></b></i></div>
