Bradford Deaf Centre lifted the first trophy of the Bradford & District Sunday School Billiards League campaign, when they repeated their success of last season in the knockout competition.

The competition was played on a round robin basis, with the team from the Deaf Centre winning five of their six matches, accumulating 13 points in doing so.

Their latest victory came at home against Princeville B, who started the day in joint second place and with hopes of the trophy still alive.

However, defeat meant they slipped to third in the table, as Pudsey, who were also joint second, defeated Princeville A to finish on 10 points.

Princeville B were third on 7 points, while Princeville A went through the campaign without collecting a single point.

The competition was contested by four teams of six players, and these will now split to form eight teams of three for the league competition.

The teams will play each other once before Christmas, with reverse fixtures being played in the New Year.
