Merrigan wins Under 21 Open

RIBSA also held an Under 21 Open Tour event to encourage more juniors to enter a national event and this was a big success on the day with young Daniel Merrigan from Roadstone winning the title.

The high break was won by Sean King from Maynooth with a 43 break. Daniel Merrigan from Roadstone, Aaron Smith from Potters, Dylan Shaughnessy from Crucible and Leone Crowley from Shooters reached the semi-finals with tremendous performances on the day.

In the semis Daniel Merriagn beat Aaron Smith 3-1 and Dylan Shaughnessy beat Leone Crowley 3-1 to set up the final between Daniel Merrigan and Dylan Shaughnessy.

It was the first time either player had reached a RIBSA final and both players played outstanding snooker but it was Daniel who potted the vital balls to record a memorable victory for the young Dubliner to lift his maiden title.
