  • Ryan Day awaits...

    BOUWE Bosma ground out a 3-2 victory over Chris Richards in the final of the last leg of the Cuestars South of England Under-21 Gold Tour.

    Promoted this season after winning the 2010 Silver championship, the 15-year-old from Chandler’s Ford SC heads into next month’s play-off in joint seventh place.

    Bosma shaded rankings winner and clubmate Daniel Woods 3-2 in a tactical semi-final clash at Jesters Snooker Hall, Swindon.

    And he accounted for 21-year-old Richards (Cardiff) by the same scoreline from 2-1 down in the final.

    Bosma, a beaten finalist last time out at Basingstoke in April, said: “At 2-1 down I was thinking ‘just slow him down and grind the game out’ because he was playing quite pacey.

    “When it went 2-2, I knew I was going to win the next frame.”

    Despite losing 3-2 to Ben Tanner (The Academy, Eastleigh) in the group stages, Bosma qualified in first place thanks to a superior frames tally. He accounted for Lee Bell (The Academy, Eastleigh) 3-0 to advance to the last-four.

    Group A winner Richards, who finished the season as runner-up in the rankings, dispatched Kevin Impett (Chandler’s Ford SC) 3-1 in the last-eight and Tanner by the same score in the semis.

    Also in the quarter-finals, Group C runner-up Tanner, 18, edged past Group B winner Lee Carlton (Liberal Club, High Wycombe) 3-2 and Woods, who topped Group D, defeated Group A runner-up Stuart Scott (Romford SC) 3-1.

    The top-16 ranked players qualify for the Championship Play-Off at Jesters, Swindon, on Sunday, June 5, in front of guest-of-honour Ryan Day.

    The lucky 16 are: Daniel Woods (C/Ford), Chris Richards (Cardiff), Lee Bell (Eastleigh), Ben Tanner (Eastleigh), Jordan Winbourne (C/Ford), Shane Castle (C/Ford), Billy Castle (Marchwood), Bouwe Bosma (C/Ford), Danny Tallentire (Westbury), Kevin Impett (C/Ford), James Facey (Cardiff), Bradley Chappell (Bournemouth), Liam Burnet (Eastleigh), Lee Carlton (High Wycombe), Lee Warner (Gosport), Sam Thomas (Cardiff).

    Winfield canters to Silver championship


    TROWBRIDGE teenager Daniel Winfield has completed a remarkable season top of the Cuestars South of England Under-21 Silver Tour rankings.

    A 2-0 victory over second-placed James Inglis in the final of the last leg at Jesters Snooker Hall, Swindon, means Winfield has claimed the number one position by a margin of 30 points.

    And he’s a staggering 67 points clear of Oliver Parsons (Jesters, Swindon) in third place.

    The 16-year-old, whose practice base is Player’s in Westbury, has won three of the eight tournaments and has only failed to make the last-four on one occasion.

    Of his 11 group stage frames, Winfield dropped just one, to Jamie Perry (Jesters, Swindon). And he cruised past Bradley Hatch (The Academy, Eastleigh) and Thomas Lancastle (Keynsham SC), again without conceding a frame, to reach the final.

    Meanwhile, Midlands raider Inglis, also a three-event winner, won four of his five round-robin matches but still only qualified for the knockout in third place.

    The 17-year-old, based at Rileys, Worcester, accounted for Dean Matthews (Ivy Leaf Club) 2-0 and Parsons 2-1.

    In the quarter-finals, Thomas Lancastle, from World Championship finalist Judd Trump’s former club in Keynsham, defeated Joshua Lee (Jesters, Swindon) 2-1 and Parsons beat Mark Lloyd (Stoke SC, Gosport) 2-1.

    The top-16 ranked players qualify for the Championship Play-Off at Jesters, Swindon, on Sunday, June 5, in front of guest-of-honour Ryan Day.

    The lucky 16 are: Daniel Winfield (Westbury), James Inglis (Worcester), Oliver Parsons (Swindon), Dean Matthews (Ivy Leaf Club), Ryan Gavin (High Wycombe), Thomas Lancastle (Keynsham), Bradley Hatch (Eastleigh), Joshua Lee (Swindon), Jamie Perry (Swindon), Mark Lloyd (Gosport), Jodie Symes (Swindon), Gary Wilkins (Westbury), Carl Sidey (Basingstoke), Robert Henley (Eastleigh), Cameron Gillon (Gosport), Paul Ives (High Wycombe).

    Troy weighs in with first victory


    SWINDON youngster Troy Bodman took advantage of home tables at Jesters Snooker Hall to claim victory in the final leg of the Cuestars South of England Under-21 Bronze Tour.

    Bodman climbed to seventh place despite having made only three appearances this season.

    A runner-up in Salisbury last October, a semi-finalist in Swindon in November and now a winner, Bodman heads into next month’s play-off as one of the championship favourites.

    He won eight matches without dropping a single frame, a feat which rankings winner and top seed Callum Browne (Player’s, Westbury) will have surely noticed.

    Not surprisingly, Bodman finished first in Group B. He then defeated Joshua Hughes (Rileys, Worcester) and Browne, both 2-0, before seeing off his clubmate Derrick Volante by the same score in the final.

    Volante, runner-up to Browne in Group A, booked his final spot by beating Group D winner Mike Trigg (Chandler’s Ford SC) and Group B runner-up Sonnie O’Sullivan (Liberal Club, High Wycombe) both 2-0.

    Rankings runner-up Connor Probets (Jesters, Swindon) - 24 points adrift of top spot but a massive 43 in front of third-placed Cameron Holt (Liberal Club, High Wycombe) - was knocked out 2-0 by Browne in the quarter-finals.

    O’Sullivan’s semi-final exit left him an agonising two points shy of the play-off. He beat Jasmine Bolsover (Woking SC) 2-0 in the last-eight.

    Oliver Clark (Stoke SC, Gosport) compiled his highest competitive break of 25 in the group stages. The 12-year-old, who finished 11th in the rankings, knocked in five reds and four blues.

    The top-16 ranked players qualify for the Championship Play-Off at Jesters, Swindon, on Sunday, June 5, in front of guest-of-honour Ryan Day.

    The lucky 16 are: Callum Browne (Westbury), Connor Probets (Swindon), Cameron Holt (High Wycombe), Robert Harding (Farnborough), Sam Storey (Thatcham), Joshua Hughes (Worcester), Troy Bodman (Swindon), Andrew Dyer (Westbury), Jasmine Bolsover (Woking), Nathan Farmer (Gosport), Oliver Clark (Gosport), Bradley Cowdroy (Bournemouth), Michael Trigg (Chandler’s Ford), Derrick Volante (Swindon), Stewart Ball (Bournemouth), Karl Eggar (Gosport).
