NSC claimed victory in the Leeds City Team Championship last night 4-2 against a resilient Belle Isle trio…

Frame 1: In this highly anticipated match up it was Dan Womersley from NSC up against Richard Binns from Belle Isle. Binns looked the more composed player throughout as Womersley struggled to find any rhythm. Binns eased this first encounter with contributions of 35 & 33 effectively ending the frame and giving Belle Isle the early advantage in this race to 4. 11 – 94 (0 – 1)

Frame 2: Again, a tough match up saw Lewis Harper up against the veteran Glen Cassidy of Belle Isle. Lewis started the brighter with some early mini break, despite Glen clawing some of the deficit back, a couple of unexpected misses allowed Harper to wrap this frame up and level the match.
66 – 21 (1 – 1)

Frame 3: Another tough match featuring Lee Brookes from NSC up against Gary Barton from Belle Isle. Brookes started the brighter, but Barton tried to then find a bit of form and looked like it was going to be a closer frame until Brookes gained the upper hand and won the frame comfortably to give NSC a 2 -1 lead 74 – 34 (2 – 1)

Frame 4: Womersley and Binns commenced battle again with Binns needing to win to keep the match alive. This frame did not live up to any expectations, both player squandering chances, more noticeably Womersley, who was out of sorts and failed to capitalise on any of the chances Binns left him. Binns was triumphant once again to level the match. 15 – 46 (2 – 2)

Frame 5: Harper broke off in this frame knowing a win would give teammate Brookes a wonderful opportunity to seal the victory. Again, it was Harper the brighter of the two players and looked the more comfortable on the ‘centre’ table. Despite Cassidy having several chances, Harper was the far superior player and eased this frame to leave NSC one frame away from the title. 64 – 26 (3 – 2)

Frame 6: Barton broke off knowing he needed to out muster the NSC cueist to force a deciding frame. First in was Brookes and with an exceptional split from potting the black the reds scattered and frame at his mercy. A careless positional shot meant Brookes could only make 35, so the frame was well and truly alive. However, it was Brookes in again and gained a superior advantage with 6 reds remaining. Barton fought back and a nicely crafted 23 break reduced the deficit. It was not to be as snookers required going onto the colours and with Brookes potting yellow and green, hands were shaken with the title going to the NSC trio… 73 – 30 (4 – 2)

Thank you to NSC for hosting the final, also thanks to Mark Ball for officiating to such an extremely high standard!!

The draw for the quarter-final of the 3 man KO is now live, please see competition tab for more details.

All matches to be played on Wednesday 21st May.

Mark Aspin (Middleton Cons), defeated Thomas Oates (South Leeds Cons) 193-141 in last nights Stan Brooke Singles final at the NSC.
Conceding 32 points per frame Oates started the match the stronger of the two and had wiped out the deficit going into the colours in the first frame. Crucially though he went in off the pink and Aspin stepped up to take a great pink and black to win the frame by 23 points. That seemed to unsettle Oates and it was Aspin who took the ascendancy in the second frame. Try as he might Oates couldn't get going and found himself 47 points behind on the blue. He did however give himself a lifeline by potting the last three colours to end up losing the frame by 29 points.
So going into the third, Aspin led by 52 on aggregate. With 4 reds left there was 59 points difference so Oates could tie and after potting 2 reds with blacks he was 43 behind. That was as close as he got however and when Aspin potted the penultimate red the match was effectively over. Oates conceded a few shots later.
Thanks to Andy Kitson for officiating and to our hosts the NSC.
