Rampant Tigers Roar to Victory

The victorious Times Tigers celebrate there win against stablemates Scorpions in the Final of the Players Memorial Shield

Reigning champions, Scorpions faced Tigers who were narrowly beaten in the final last year in a last frame play off.

Captain sensible, Colin Rafferty put the Scorpions ahead with a pin point finish. Davy Flanagan levelled the scores with another lovely finish. Deano Reid made it 2-1 putting Scorpions back in front. Tigers doubles pairing of Steven Simpson and Chris Carson quickly equalised 2-2. Tigers went 3-2 up with a fine finish from the doubles pairing of John Fulton and Alan Corrigan. The pairing of Deano Reid and Darren Whiteside brought it back to 3-3 in what was shaping up to be another very close final. Alan Corrigan and John Fulton took the next in a single visit to give the Tigers the lead 4-3. Chris Carson put the Tigers on the hill 5-3 before John Fulton took out the finish of the night to give the Times Tigers their very first (and well deserved) winner’s trophy.

Thanks to Times Bar for hosting the final.
