By the end of the morning\u2019s play, the Marauders had unfortunately failed to qualify for the afternoon\u2019s top 8 knock-out but Bernard\u2019s Minotaurs were one of only two teams that had won all their games. The Monarchs qualified in fifth place.
\nIn the quarter-finals the Minotaurs lost 8-13 to last year\u2019s winners, Age Concern, while the Monarchs beat Tortolla 13-1 to earn a semi-final tie against Age Concern. In a very tight game, the Monarchs emerged the victors, winning 13-9.
\nIn the final the Monarchs faced KPB (Barbara Vaughan, Kon Tomczyk and Phil Bradshaw) but were outplayed, losing 5-13. KPB will now be invited to represent Wales in the Over 55s European Championship in Sweden in June.”<\/p>\n
