Jake Stewart won the 2nd Redruth Bronze waistcoat tournament against Alex Wills by 2 frames to 1 in the final. This tournament was hosted by the Clinton Social Club. Wills went 1-0 up with some steady matchplay snooker before Stewart drew level at 1-1 with the help of a 28 break. Stewart got ahead in the decider with some fine potting to beat Wills but not before he was made to sweat by a gallant fight back from Wills, Stewart holding on for a well deserved victory.

In the semi-final Stewart was made to work hard for his 2-1 win over the fast improving Carl Mitchell. Wills defeated Jamie Edwards 2-1 in the other semi final. In the qualifying rounds Stewart beat young Aiden Johns 2-0 whilst Mitchell defeated Wayne Pellow 2-1. Another brave effort from Brett Broad who after going 1-0 up lost 2 pink ball games to lose 1-2 against the eventual runner-up Alex Wills. Jamie Edwards received a bye in the qualifying stages.

In the Plate it finished at one win each for Johns, Pellow and Broad. Broad won by virtue of the highest points tally and a break of 23. Congratulations to all players who took part and special thanks to the Clinton Social Club for the use of their excellent facilities. The next Redruth Bronze will be held at Illogan Highway institute on Sunday 20th or 27th of January 2008 (to be confirmed).
