May I take this opportunity of wishing all members an enjoyable and successful season of snooker and billiards.

 
We have a new member of our committee this year, Billy Keenan from Kirkburton Lib, someone I am sure most players will know, welcome to our team Billy.

We have a new Huddersfield Snooker Champion in Conrad Norcliffe, who finally came to the fore after a number of successful seasons, to beat Robert Armitage in the final. He then added to this achievement by winning the Leonard Oldham pairs in partnership with Martyn Beck. Levi Hardy took the Junior title beating team mate David Dunne in the final. Huddersfield No 1 billiard team won the Yorkshire Billiard League for a third consecutive season, a superb achievement.

This year we changed our “finals fortnight” venue, sharing this between Crosland Moor Con and Marsh Lib. – this proved to be successful. The presentation night was held at Lindley Lib. and was the best attended for some years, proving to be another beneficial move.

Finally a very special mention must go to Peter Gilbert who will be retiring at the close of this season: - Peter developed and maintained our Website singlehandedly and it has been a pleasure to have had him as part of our team, he will be sorely missed; grateful thanks Peter.


Good luck to all for the coming season.
