Ian and Alex were in top form and came away with a good win. The Ladies final was between Marie Lewsey and Maree Lewis against Sue Dawson and Annette Norman. All four ladies played beautifully with the game see-sawing throughout the match, but in the end Sue and Annette took the honours for a win. Congratulations to both the Men and Ladies Pairs winners.
