Hawksworth lands second county title with Mann
Wymondham's Chris Mann and Deaf Sports' Laura
Hawksworth claimed the Norfolk pairs title seeing off Morgan
Warnes of Horsford BC and Gary Best of Bob Carter in a
fiercely competitive final. For Mann this was his third pairs
title with three different players and for Hawksworth is now
her second county title after her mixed fours win last season.
After four ends the final was locked at 3-3 but the next
two ends changed the
shape of the match with a
single then maximum four
scored by Mann and
Hawksworth gave them
an 8-3 lead. This
prompted Gary to swap

match with an end to spare as they led 10-5.

In the third fourth playoff Simon Warnes of Horsford BC Morgan Warnes
and Keith Cooke of Halvergate beat Halvergate's Kerry Greenacre and Wortwell's David Blundell

formance.
