Spartans Quest


Knockout Cup Final Result
Spartans 8-0 Scorpions

After the most comprehensive Final win in recent memory in the Carrick & District Pool League, Tommy Maguires Spartans are the 2011/2012 Knock Out Cup Winners. Jonny Thompsons Scorpions didn't really do a lot wrong, Spartans just done everything right. The standard of  Pool was awesome with clearance after clearance from the pumped up Whitehead Team.

1-0 Ellis Martin with a precise 8 ball clearance
2-0 Ed McDowell with a pinpoint 8 ball clearance
3-0 Neil McKelvey with a break and dish including the shot of the night from his last red to the black
4-0 McDowell again with a 7 ball clearance
5-0 Martin follows suit with another 7 ball clearance
6-0 McKelvey with yet another 8 ball finish
7-0 McWhirters turn, as he clears 7 and the black
8-0 Scrappy, but Darren Lowe didn't mind as he potted the final black of the match to give Spartans their 1st ever Knock Out Cup Final success.

Back row - Kenny English, Tommy Maguire, Darren Lowe, Neil McKelvey
Front row - Ed McDowell, Robert Hawkins, Stephen McWhirter, Ellis Martin
