201 Ladies Tour - Event 1 |
|
 The fifth year of the Scottish ladies blackball tour gave us a new venue for the event, the lovely Corner Pocket in Falkirk. The tour is mandatory for all Scotland Ladies International Players with the World Masters Championships in Bridlington just around the corner a good turnout was expected.
I am pleased to see new talent continuing to emerge throughout the ladies game in Scotland, long may this continue. A few players were unable to make the first event which resulted in twenty six ladies descending on The Corner Pocket, Falkirk at 11:00 Hrs for Event 1.

 Monklands are the, inaugural 2010 Scottish Super 11s B Champions, beating Glasgow B1 6 frames to 2 in the final. Captained by Stuart “Bucky” Buchanan Monklands were imperious throughout, remaining unbeaten over the whole weekend.
