Big Congratulations

Gary Wyatt

Representing Arden Road SC

Final Result

3–1

A hard‑fought victory in a tight, high‑quality match.

Respect to the Runner‑up

Commiserations to Graham Sharp (Hill Crest), who pushed the match all the way. The first three frames went down to tense black‑ball finishes — a superb effort.

Match Summary

Last night’s Veterans Final at Leemount Club delivered a dramatic and closely contested match. Both players showed great composure under pressure, with the opening frames decided on the final black. Wyatt eventually pulled clear to secure a 3–1 win.

A brilliant display of experience, sportsmanship, and determination from both finalists.

Venue & Support

Huge thanks to Leemount Club for hosting. Appreciation also to Aarron for opening the club, running the bar, and providing food, and to Patricia and everyone who helped support the evening.

Officials

Thank you to Harvey for refereeing and Lee for marking. Additional thanks to John Cameron for helping host the event.

“Respect, sportsmanship, and quality snooker — the heart of the Calder Valley Snooker League.”
