Thanks so much to everyone who supported today’s Wallasey Association competition the Tom Bassnett Pairs which took place on an immaculate Upton green. The winners were Dave Gilmore and Michael Coupe, who beat Wayne McDermott and Jay Dermott 21-09 in the final. Both pairs performed consistently well all day, beating other really strong duos, both getting through nail-biting semi finals, Dave & Michael beating Chris Barton & Josh Bunting 21-20 and Wayne & Jay taking out Les Henderson & Dave Wilson 21-19. It was a tiring & busy day so thanks to those who helped me mark some cards and joined in measuring with me.
