Final League Fixture 18/18 - 14th March
Spartans 3-11 Hitmen & Her
Greenisland Colts 9-5 Vikings
McConnells 10-4 Alpha
Scorpions 5-9 Greenisland Galacticos
Ball Breakers 8-6 Trojans
After one of the most exciting season conclusions on record, Greenisland Galacticos are 2016-2017 City Air Express Carrick & District League Champions. The top four teams had been in the mix right up until the last couple of weeks but it eventually came down to the final fixture between Scorpions and Galacticos with the hosts needing a draw or win and for the visitors nothing less than a win would do. The match was nip and tuck and on a knife edge at half time as Derek Whiteside's Galacticos led by a single frame 4-3. But two massive frames straight after the half time interval both went to the Greenisland team and gave them much appreciated breathing space at 6-3. Scorpions reduced it to 6-4 but but two frames later Dean McDonagh potted the Championship winning black ball to send his manager and team mates wild with delight as they claimed the title they last won back in 2013-2014. But a big well done to Scorpions too, they had a fantastic season for "just a bunch of guys" as they fondly like to be know as, Frames went as follows -
Scorpions 0-1 Galacticos - Dean McDonagh
Scorpions 1-1 Galacticos - Paul Kerr
Scorpions 1-2 Galacticos - Rab Butler
Scorpions 2-2 Galacticos - Rab Fee
Scorpions 2-3 Galacticos - Shaun McAlister
Scorpions 2-4 Galacticos - Dean McDonagh
Scorpions 3-4 Galacticos - Rab Fee
Scorpions 3-5 Galacticos - Shaun McAlister

Scorpions 4-8 Galacticos - Dean McDonagh
Scorpions 5-8 Galacticos - Paul Kerr
