Gilding took control of the match with three 180’s in three legs coupled with some great finishing.

In some great early matches there was some great finishing with an impressive Bull, Bull double sixteen 132 shot out from Colchester’s Paul Copeland. In the Ladies event Essex County player Karen Breen defeated Colchester’s Imogen Baxter 4-1 in a close encounter with Breen’s finishing the difference. There was a great result for Essex and Colchester in the random pairs as Alan Currivan (Walton) and Paul Brown (Colchester Riley’s) came through a strong field to defeat Andrew Gilding (Suffolk) and Steve Western (Colchester Town) 3-2 in an epic final with Brown and Currivan peppering the treble twenty in the last leg.
