The Central North-designated tournament seeing the players roll three games on Sunday with the winners being decided on points rather than a finals series.

West Tamworths Charlie Schumacher, John Coulton and Paul DElboux took the trophy home with a very good last game after being tied with the home team of Paul Eggers, Ian Westbrook and Phil OReilly going into the final match.

Club president Dick Russell said that OReilly and his side had been in top form on Sunday morning.

They beat another Norths team by about 20 shots, Russell said.
