POOL: Montgomery and Gingles win Doubles title

Colin Montgomery and Paul Ginges won the Larne and District Pool League Pigeon Club Scotch Doubles competition recently.

The Ballylumford Club pair defeated Michael Wilson and Dessie Cooper 4-2 in the final.

At the semi-finals stage, Wilson and Cooper won decisively against Lenny Swann and Andy Mackey with the tempo not suited to the style of play the studied approach of the No. 1 Blues players produce.

In the other last-four match, Station Bar’s Damian Heggarty and William Magill twice carved out an advantage, only to lose out in the deciding game to the Montgomery-Gingles partnership.

In the final the teams traded frames over the first hour to rest at 2-2. However, when Montgomery and Gingles nosed in front at 3-2 it gave them the initiative to wrap it up in frame six.

Semi-finals: Wilson / Cooper 3-0 Swann / Mackey; Colin / Gingles 3-2 Heggarty / Magill.
