2022 Minor Pairs Champions

 The game see sawed throughout, until Upu & Grant strug a few ends together towards the end of the game, which resulted in Phil & David having to play 'catch up' and go for shots that they probably wouldn't have gone for earlier on in the game. The final score (21 - 14) does not reflect how close this game really was. Congratulations to Upu & Grant on taking out the UBMBC 2022 Minor Pairs Championship and very well done to Phil & David for making the final.

From L/R Phil Poulton & Dave Long and Grant Ambrose & Upu Kila

 

Winners are grinners, Upu & Grant
