Remarkable performances in the Rotary Summer Cup
CURRENT and future Cuestars members produced some remarkable achievements during the marathon 30-day Rotary Summer Cup at Chandlers Ford Snooker Club.
Twelve new high breaks were recorded by the players during the six-week holiday period.
Eight-year-old William Thomson heads the list by becoming the youngest player at the club to make a half-century break. Bronze Tour rankings champion-elect Harry Wyatt upped his highest break to 64 in the Open Series. And 14-year-old Oliver Sykes produced a personal best 139 total clearance in a challenge match with Cuestars director John Hunter.
Turning to billiards, 11-year-old Gold player O’Shay Scott compiled a new high break of 56, Oliver increased his personal best to 67 and Caden Read improved so much that he was crowned three-ball wizard two days after returning from holiday.
William passed Level 7 of the Cuestars Academy and his six-year-old brother, Lewis, completed Level 1. Asten Sahota scored a massive 24 points on the tricky Level 4 and Tyler Beer waved goodbye to Level 3.
Tyler (pictured) won the overall rankings title. The seven-year-old from Fair Oak finished the 120 hours of competition nine points clear of his brother Dylan. The siblings missed only two of the 30 days.
