There were 11 entries in the Open event which was won by Michael Wright with Jenny Clarke runner-up.

The handicap event was won by Edmund Fordyce with Kent Caddick runner-up. Edmund pegged out his three handicap games on Saturday and played an extra game in the Open event, beating Graeme Fisher. Edmund started the weekend on handicap 4. His handicap reduced to 3 and the manager, Chris Clarke, also made a non-automatic change to 1.5.

Edmund’s mother Carolyn played two games  in the handicap event when Maurice Cook was unable to play.
