League Champions - Q8 Sports Bar!

Congratulations to Q8 Sports Bar who won their final game of the season to claim the league title this year.

In the last couple of months, we had a four horse race involving Bryn Labour (3rd) and Newton Social B (4th),
but with one round of matches remaining, only Haydock Reading Room A (2nd) had any chance of catching
Q8 Sports Bar (1st) - both teams won 4-2 resulting in the lads at Q8 being crowned champions!

Well done to everyone who participated in the league this year - another successful season for the Earlestown & District Snooker League.
