Unfortunately the North was un- 21
able to raise a team and at the
last minute an additional team
called the All Stars was drafted
in. Thanks must go to those
players who formed the All
Stars as well as John Smith
who managed them throughout
the day.
In the first session the
East faced the County “A” Team
and came away with 2 points
after a 14-8 victory in the sin-
gles. The West faced the All
Stars and won 18-8 in the Sin-
gles and 14-5 in the Triples; they also gained an additional two points after having the most
shots and so came away from the opening session with 6 points.
In the second session the All Stars took 3 points from the County “A” Team with a 12-11
victory in the Pairs and a 7-7 draw in the Fours. The East won the battle of the areas after se-
curing 7 points. The East gained these points by winning the Pairs 13-8, the Fours 9-6 and draw-
ing the Triples 8-8. They also gained two points from having the most shots,
In the final session of the day the East faced the All Stars, but they were only able to gain
3points with an 11-9 in the Pairs and a 10-10 draw in the Triples. With the destination of the
Area Challenge shield still unclear the West faced the Devon County “A” Team and the West
won the Singles 18-10 and the Fours 12-3.
They also had the most shots in the match and therefore gained another 2 points, meaning
they took 6 points off the County “A” Team. After all the points had been added up the Devon
County Team had 19 points and the All Stars had 14 points. It was the closest Area Challenge
we have had for many years and the result was not known until the last game in the last session,
however East Devon were piped to the post after they secured 12 points whilst West Devon se-
cured 15 points.
