Stafford Sunday Ladies Singles Knockout - Pippa Steele Trophy
Played on Sunday 21st October 2017
Venue Kennys Sportsbar
Congratulations to Irene Wood on becoming ladies Champion for the 3rd time in row. She overcame the challenge of another 3 time ladies champion in Charlotte Shelley 4-1 in the Final. The match was a lot closer then the score line suggests as both players showed off their county experience.
Irene, however was to work a lot harder to reach the final then Charlotte as she had come through a play off group with Tasha Farmer and Lynda Simpson. Irene had a close match against Tasha winning 2-1 and then played another county ladies player Lynda and won 2-0.
In the semi final Charlotte was drawn against Charlene Marsden-Till and ran out 3-0 Winner. Irene then played Kirsty Lawrence, Kirsty the week before, inflicted a first defeat over Irene but this time Irene made amends and won 3-0 to reach the Final.

For the first time in 8 seasons, there is a New Singles Champion. Congratulations to Gavin Davies (Kennys Bear) as he ran out a worthy champion by defeating Mike Barker (The Kennys Cue) 5-2 in the Final.
It was Gav Davies's 2nd appearance in the Final, the other being in 2004 which he lost to Tim McGann. It was Mike Barker’s 3rd Final but again had to settle for 2nd place after losses in the 2008 final to Andy Rawlinson and 2014 to Rob Wharne. Rob Wharne (Institute SC) long unbeaten run finally came to an end after losing to Barker 4-3 in the Semi Final. A 46 match winning streak which had seen the England international dominate the Sunday Singles competition since 2010.
However Gav Davies seized his chance and was flawless on the Finals Night as he saw off the challenge of Warren Jesney 3-0 (quarter final), Alan Sim 4-1 (Semi Final) and then Mike Barker 5-2 in the Final. Mike Barker route to the final saw him ran out a 3-0 winner over Aaron Atkin (quarter final) before his famous 4-3 win over Rob Wharne in the semi Final
