Merseyside Open Billiards Championship
Peter Shelley had some compensation in what, for him, has been a
disappointing season by securing the Merseyside Open Billiards
Championship at “Scotties” Club, Derby Lane, Liverpool, on Sunday
23rd February. Shelley defeated John Sweeney 400-267 in the final and
also made the highest break of the competition with 117 in the semifinal
against Phil Whiteside. The only other century had been made by
Whiteside in the opening round (113). John Sweeney had reached the
final by defeating Eddie Fielding and Lenny Agnew in the Quarter and
semi-final rounds respectively.
The 2003 North West Billiards Championship will be held at the same
location on Sunday 1st June commencing at 12.00. Entry is £5 and can
be made through Pam Welsby on 0151-489-3711.
