President's Cup Semis and Final

As far as the two finalists were concerned, the semis were potentially tough games that had to be overcome swiftly because two games in a row can be a daunting task.
Francis has asked that the semis reports use the words "nailbiting", "sneaked through", "damned close" etc. So I've used them.  But in reality, both games finished early and the teams of Ronnie Peat and Euan Lawrence had time for a drink and a chip butty before the final.
The losing semi finalists were Malcolm Bowden, Bob Henderson and Francis McCrossin, who lost to Ronnie's team and Jimmy Begg, Peter Reynolds, Allan Hastie and Jim Henry, who lost to Euan's team.

The final was a good quality game and there were critical shots played by both teams. The turning point was the 6th end where Euan's team of Willie Scott, David Scott and David Gray stole a three. They also played well in the 7th (and last) end holding Ronnie's team of George Hodge David Moulds and David Hope to a single shot and thereby winning 6-4. A game fitting for a final and well deserved victory for Euan.
