McGuirk wins RIBSA U-14 Ranking Event 1

Ronan McGuirk won the first RIBSA Under 14 Snooker Ranking of the season in Newbridge CYMS on Saturday the 5th of October. It promises to be another exciting year with all the young players trying to qualify for the Celtic Challenge International Junior Team.

Stars of the future Ronan McGuirk from R&R SC, David Farrelly from Celbridge SC, Jack O Brien from Rathkeale SC and Jude White from the Hawks Nest SC qualified for the Semi-Finals round.

  • Semi Finals

In the first Semi Final Ronan McGuirk beat David Farrelly 3-2 in a very close match both players played well on the day. In the other semi-final, it was Jack o Brien who beat Jude White 3-0 in another excellent match.

 

  • Final

In the Final Ronan McGuirk beat the reigning National Under 12 Champion Jack O Brien 3 frames to nil to take the title. Both players played well in each frame. Good long potting from both boys but it was to be Ronan who would triumph on the day.

  • Plate

In the Plate Final it was David Farrelly who beat Jude White 2-0 in a great match. It was David who took the first frame after a close frame and in the second frame, it went to a re-spot black and David came out on top to win.
