Mat Three saw Peter Goode and Iris Buchannon from Martham beat the second-place pair of
Eagles’ Doreen Scarff and Alan Goodhew by 5 points to 4. On Mat Four the Owls pair Norma
and Peter Jablonowski stormed to a 6-point win with Mo Boreham and Jackie Fortescue from
Bradwell Robins coming second with 4 points.
Both semi-finals were extremely close, the Jablonowski's scraping into the final by one
shot against Peter and Iris, and after 8 ends, the score on the other mat was even, 5-5, so Gail
and Mick had to play another end against Jenny and Ted and came through by 2 shots. As usual
the re-positioning of the mat was a key factor in the final, Norma and Peter Jablonowski were
both very accurate, overcoming Gail and Mick Hodgson by 11 shots to 2.

Their last match was effectively
a winner take all against Robbie Lamb's block with them in second position having seen them
pick up wins against Forncett 13-2, David Lamb 10-4 and Bob Oatway 7-3.
The match was tight and saw Lamb's four leading 5-4 with two ends to play but some good
pressure woods played by Owen Cranston at skip secured the win with back to back braces
over the last two ends to see them win 8-5. The result put Robbie Lamb's four into third position
enough for a national’s place with David Lamb's four in second after they beat Simon Willies 8
shots to-2.
