The first round of the Doubles Competition was completed last night and we now advance to the finals night. The 12 pairs that have qualified for the finals night are:
- From Group 1 – Dennis & Mick (JJS), James & Mac (Nom), Len & Rob (JJS), Darren & Dave (JJS).
- From Group 2 – Mav & The Kid (TB), Richard & Lynne (LF), Inmate & Sunshine (Eng), Jamie & Tim (LF).
- From Group 3 – Andy & Rachel (LF), Paul & Andy (LF), Keith & Neil (C&G), Andy & Paul (BB).
The detailed first round results are available to view here.
The finals night takes place on Mon 9th December, 7:30pm @ Redditch Borough (the earlier start time was requested by captains at the most recent AGM to help with an earlier finish). Please be aware of the earlier start and arrive in good time.
The draw for the semi-finals was completed this afternoon and can be viewed here.
The format of the finals night will be as follows:
- SF: Two groups of 6 pairs. 6 legs total (3 legs played on each alley – for fairness because of the difference between the alleys). Highest scoring 2 pairs from each SF progress to the GF.
- GF: One group of 4 pairs. A draw to determine playing order. 5 legs. Played on alley 2 (the refurbished lane). Highest scoring pair declared Doubles Champions 2024.
- In the event of a tie for the last qualifying position in a SF, or for the highest score in the GF, the pairs involved will have a single leg bowl off. If pairs are still tied, they continue to bowl off until a winner is found.
Thank you to everyone who took part in the first round and good luck to all pairs in the finals.
