The Bradford billiards team went down to their second defeat of the season against Wharfedale but the snooker team had a draw with Sheffield No 1.

In the billiards match with Wharfedale, Richard Lodge got the team away to a good start when with breaks of 42,46,45 and 38 he defeated Jack Parker 200-16 in a one-sided game. Mark Hirst was very unlucky to lose his game with Paul Anderton when twice in perfect top-of-the-table position he had two cover-ups. Anderton had two early breaks of 69 and 36 to which Hirst replied with 43 and 63 when he had his first cover but led the game 122-119 after this break. Anderton then had another break of 77 to lead 196-122. Hirst then started another break which finished on a cover at 29 and Anderton ran to game at 200-151.

The last game was as one-sided as the first, but Stephen Crosland had all the running and with breaks of 69 and 50 beat Alan First 200-39 to give Wharfedale a 5-2 win and a one point lead at the top of the league.

In the snooker match with Sheffield No 1, Wayne Cooper started the match with a century break, defeating Kevin Johnstone 108-12. In the second frame Cooper cleared the table with 39 to take the frame 71-53. Howard Mawson was on the wrong end of two good breaks by ex-county champion Martin Finnigan 61 in the first frame for a 73-30 score and 53 in the next losing 80-17.

Sajid Khan also suffered when David Allender had a good 78 to win the next frame 79-6 but Khan came back to win the last frame 64-33 and make the result a 3-3 draw. An unchanged snooker team travel to York to play a re-arranged match in the Yorkshire Inter District League.
