25.01.2022 Big day on Saturday with the End of Year Christmas Competition with 25 members involved. And then our dinner and presentation dinner to over 50 guests. Draw is attached and live results can be found here: https://clubbanorasnooker.weebly.com/20201.html
25.01.2022 Week 10 Matchday 2 saw old but friendly rivalries resume between Hard Workers and Kilted Dragons. In an entertaining match Jimmy and Paul from Kilted Dragons, who were missing Graham for the night, looked to have gotten off to the perfect start in the doubles. With 3 balls left and 17 points up, Paul miscounted and left the blue up when it looked all over. Adam and George from Hard Workers jumped on the chance and sneaked home by 1 point. Jimmy took on Des in the first single...s and enjoyed a rare win against Des to level it up 1-1. Paul, still looking shell shocked from the doubles, struggled against George but a flurry of snookers got him close before some bad luck saw 2 in offs on the pink. 2-1 Hard Workers. Paul and Des then played on table 1 whilst Jimmy matched up to Adam on table 2. Both matches went down to the pink with Des sneaking home over Paul, and Jimmy coming from behind with the help of some snookers to defeat Adam. Hard Workers move up to 6th spot and Kilted Dragons drop down to 7th. Both are comfortably qualified for the finals. Next week sees Assassins (8th) vs Blackjacks (9th)
23.01.2022 The latest match in the Des Turner Teams Event tonight saw Unjagables take on The Young Ones. With Jack Malone missing this week, it was down to Brian Green and Ray Wilcher to battle the lads who have been flying high in 2nd place. A close doubles match came down to the black as Ray potted the final 3 balls, including a great pink, to win by a single point. The clearance proved to be a key moment as the singles were shared 2-2 to give Unjagables a narrow, but important, 3-2 v...ictory. Chris and Cooper both got the better of Ray with big wins but Greeny notched both his frames against Kane and then Chris in the decider. The Young Ones remain in 2nd having played all their matches now and Unjagables sit comfortably in mid table 5th spot. Next week sees 3rd placed ARMed & Dangerous against table toppers JNJ.
22.01.2022 The draws for the Eamonn Duff 2020 have been completed and sent out to all players. Due to some late withdrawals we have 69 players. As you may have seen in earlier announcements, we are running this as two separate events to ensure we could go ahead. NSW event at Club Banora will run from Saturday 3rd to Monday 5th October.... QLD event at Southport Snooker Club will run from Saturday 3rd to Sunday 4th October. Draws and results can be followed here: https://challonge.com/ED2020NSWMAIN https://challonge.com/ED2020QLDMAIN
22.01.2022 After the excitement of the Eamonn Duff Championship last weekend, tonight it was back to the Des Turner Teams Event. Hard Workers took on Assassins in a match between two of the lower ranked teams. In the end, Assassins prevailed 3-2 to guarantee 8th spot which gets them into the finals on Sunday 29th November. The loss for Hard Workers, who had Desmond Turner to thank for his 2 singles wins, means they slip back to 7th spot.... Next week sees 2nd placed Young Ones take on 5th placed Unjagables.
21.01.2022 Latest update on the Eamonn Duff 2020. Quite incredibly we have 71 entries. 36 in Banora for the NSW event and 35 in Southport for the QLD event. Banora event is now full. Only 1 more spot remains for the QLD event. ... Payment details have been sent out by email. If you haven't yet paid, please organise payment asap.
19.01.2022 For the first time this season we had a forfeited match in the Des Turner Teams Event. With her brother Jonny on honeymoon, Jessica Woods was left on her own after Nero Hanna was a late call off due to being unwell. So it was a straightforward 5-0 walkover for Mark Johnson and Austin Taylor of ARMed & Dangerous.... This closes the gap considerably for 2nd placed ARMed & Dangerous and leaves JNJ in danger of missing out on top spot at the end of the regular season unless they can win against reigning champs Kilted Dragons. ARMed & Dangerous are back on again next week against 4th placed Rocket Men.
16.01.2022 The final round of the regular season in the Des Turner Teams Event started tonight with the 1st match between ARMed & Dangerous and Rocket Men. With Mark Johnson working, Ryan Cretan made the journey from Brisbane to partner Austin Taylor against Rod Smith and Mitch Gorrick. Tony Hill was unable to attend. Rocket Rod Smith guided his team to a narrow 3-2 victory by winning both his singles along with the all important doubles match.... The result sees Rocket Men leapfrog ARMed & Dangerous from 3rd to 2nd place. They have an unlikely outside chance of 1st place if JNJ collapse in their last match. The next 2 matches have both been switched from Wednesdays to one single evening on Monday 9th November. 1st place JNJ take on defending champions Kilted Dragons who are struggling back in 6th place. And 5th placed Unjagables play the already doomed last placed Blackjacks.
15.01.2022 This past Saturday 19th December we ran the End of Year Comp to 25 players. In the main comp, it was congratulations to Darren Harris for his win over Brian Green in the final. The consolation comp was won by Graham Wilson who beat Rod Marquardt in the final. ... Here are some pics from the day. We will post the presentation dinner photos later in the week.
14.01.2022 Round 10 kicked off tonight in the Des Turner Teams Event with a match between Rocket Men and Unjagables. Unjagables unveiled their new star signing Ray Wilcher tonight to fill the gap due to Luke being unable to play. However The Rocket Men did not roll out the welcome mat as they ran out 4-1 winners. Key result was Tony Hill who managed to just hold off Ray with the help of a large start to win by 1 single point.... Captain 'Rocket' Rod Smith led the way with 2 solid singles wins to see his team leapfrog Unjagables into 4th place in the ladder. Unjagables drop to 6th but look quite comfortable in the race for the finals. Next week sees double defending champions Kilted Dragons, in 5th place, up against 7th placed Hard Workers.
14.01.2022 Well what a huge long weekend of competitive snooker at the Eamonn Duff 2020 Championships in Southport and Banora. In the QLD event in Southport it was a dominating performance by top seed Adam Waller as he saw off all challengers to only drop 1 frame throughout the whole tournament. And Jayden Dinga continued his rise with a great win in the Consolation. Big thanks to Steven Springer and all members of Southport Snooker & Billiards Club for the use of their venue. And to ...our QLD based Banora members for running it so well. In Banora, Jack Malone took out the Consolation event this morning before the main event between Joe Darby and Stuart Bowers. It all came down to the 5th frame pink after both players had their chances. Congratulations to Stuart Bowers for his win. Special mention to referees Bryne Smith and Steve Springer in Southport. And Peter Taylor along with Desmond Turner for Banora. Will add some photos from Southport when I get them. In the meantime here are some images from Banora. Final thanks to the management of Twin Towns, all players and to our sponsors.

11.01.2022 Congratulations to Jessica Woods on winning the A Grade Club Championship today with a 4-3 win over Jimmy Thomson in the final. The match took about 4 hours and was a real battle for most of it but Jessica was able to come from 2-0 down and 3-2 down to secure the title. Big thanks to Bryne Smith and Desmond Turner for their refereeing of the semi finals and the final. Well done also to semi finalists Paul Beggs and Ray Wilcher.
07.01.2022 Congratulations to Mark Johnson for winning the George Hendrickson All-In Club Handicap Championship this afternoon. In yet another close final (our 4th final recently to go all the way to a final frame), Mark was able to scrape past Jessica Woods by 4 frames to 3. To celebrate the 4 Champions from the championships played over the past few weeks, we dedicate our Snooker Monthly front cover to the all finalists and the referees.
07.01.2022 Congratulations to Ray Wilcher for winning the Club Handicap Billiards Championship today He beat young junior Cooper Thomson in the final by 200 - 121. At one stage it looked like a shock was on the cards when Cooper, who had been playing well in previous rounds, lead by 109 - 39 but Ray started to play well and, once he caught up, there was only going to be one outcome.
06.01.2022 UPDATE: Winner of B Grade Championship is Mitch Gorrick who beat Jack Malone 3-2 in the final.

03.01.2022 There was a bottom of the table match in the Des Turner Teams Challenge where both teams were fighting for survival. And, as you would expect, it went all the way to the last few balls as Assassins scraped home 3-2. Tea and Terry of the Assassins raced into a 2-0 lead before Blackjacks launched their fightback with Ted and Joe narrowly winning the next 2 frames to tie it up and 2-2 going into the 5th frame decider.... In the end Terry held off Ted to sneak home with a 7 point margin to secure the 3-2 victory which just about assures Assassins make the finals and consigns Blackjacks to an early exit. Next week sees 8th placed Assassins back up with a match against 6th placed Hard Workers.
