In the fifth and final Bonanza of the season Knox emerged victorious from a field of almost 90 players, adding to his previous Bonanza triumphs by taking the competitive men’s singles and doubles titles.

He defeated Craig Young (Falkirk) 30-28 in the final of the singles, then teamed up with Stephen Brennan ( Glasgow) to defeat Michael Evans (Muirend) & Martin Rourke (Clarkston) 30-22 in the final of the doubles, gaining revenge for defeat to the same pair at the last Bonanza, held in February in Edinburgh.

A group of National Squad Under 13 players were in action on Saturday in a friendly event against Ulster and England’s team Forza. The friendly event was organised to give these young players the experience of playing in a team event, getting feedback from the coaches and getting the opportunity to play some different players from Ireland and England.
