He finished by congratulating Nick Haire, Hillsborough Social, on winning the A International Series pairs with Fra Dillon and wished Raymond Stubbs good luck in his bid to win the singles and pairs at the National Championships. If he wins the singles this will complete a full set of medals.

The chairman thanked the caterers for providing a really excellent meal and everyone who came along to support the League.

On receiving the Shield on behalf of Hillsborough Social, Jean Hamilton re-iterated the chairman’s remarks and said the League was very enjoyable to play in. She said the Ballinderry record proved they were the best team in the League and also wished Raymond Stubbs good luck at the Nationals.
