George O’Hara wins Intermediate Event 1

George O Hara from Fairview SC won the first RIBSA Snooker Intermediate ranking event of the season when he beat John Torpey from St Johns Limerick 3 frames to nil in the Ivy Rooms SC in Carlow. The final referee was Conor Doyle.

George O Hara and John Torpey had reached the final in Darcy McGees SC in Dublin and the final was scheduled for Tuesday 3rd October after the final was delayed due to the late finish.

Both players were in fantastic form on Saturday the 28th of September in the D’Arcy McGees Snooker Club. In the semi final John beat Dane Daly 3-0 while George beat Adrian Morrissey 3-2.

The Semi Finalists in each Intermediate Ranking Tournament this season will qualify for the a 16 man Grand Final which will be held on the 7th of March 2020 in Newbridge CYMS.
