Well done to Atherstone Cons 'A' duo of Neil 'Chicken' Randle & John Grimes who out potted the Mighty Oak pair of Steven Nesden & Callumn Mulhern 4 - 3 in the final of the Doubles. Both pairs were on top form as they produced a high quality match full of quality clearances and top safety play, Chick and John both taking out pressure break dishes, with John's in the deciding frame of the final. Thank you to the LUCKY BREAK-Bentley Road Pool And Sports bar for hosting us.

Well done to the Mighty Oak's Steve Nesden who was on cue to beat Milson Dyet in the final and take the Christmas Shootout at the Lucky Break Pool Hall. Nes put the doubles disappointment behind him to be the last man standing from the 31 runners that broke off at the start of the night, he beat Andy Smith amd Eddie Edkins before gaining a little revenge on John Grimes in the quarter finals. He then ended the great run of Mash Comley in the last 4. In the other half of the draw the Midland Railway cueman Milson was out potting Darren Trickett, Jamie Riley, Leo Frankin and Cark Franklin to make the final. Thanks to all the players and supporters that made it an awesome fun night. Thanks to Michelle Currin for running the night while I was overseeing the doubles final. Big thank you to Megan behind the bar for looking after everyone and to Nick and Jamie-Lee of the Lucky Break Pool Hall for their continued support. Finally i'd like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and every happiness for 2026.
