HAROLD PAYNE TEAMS OF FOUR CHAMPIONSHIP |
Six teams played in this event on 17 March. In a very close finish, Richard Blyth (Geoff Jones, Ian Marriott, Paul Lindsay) was victorious with 59 VPs ahead of joint second equal Heather Holder-Powell (John Golding, Graham Ramsey, Peter Scott) with Geoff Smith (Glyn Meredith, Jo Bryant, Mick Robson) on 57 VPs. The winning team qualifies to represent Cornwall in the Pachabo Cup in June. Congratulations to them, and we wish them well in the national final.

JOHN PERKS PAIRS |
The John Perks Pairs, our premier pairs event, was held on RealBridge on Sunday 21 January. Congratulations to Mick Robson and Jo Bryant who won with over 61%, followed by Geoff Smith and Glyn Meredith on 57%, with last year's winners, Wendy Williams and Henry Gompertz, finishing in third place with 52%. These three pairs have qualified to represent Cornwall in the National final, the Corwen Trophy, in early June.
It is sad that only 8 pairs played in the John Perks this year, compared to 11 pairs last year. When I first played in the event less than 20 years ago, there were three heats in the county with the leading 14 pairs playing in the final.
