A brilliant performance by Chris Shutt and his break of 207 was the highest in the contest.

The score of 1713 which is a competition record, the previous record being 1454 by Norman Dagley In 1981.

Another CIU NATIONAL INDIVIDUAL BILLIARDS CHAMPIONSHIP record to fall was the best aggregate score of 2287 On a personal note I am delighted that the differences between the EASB and the EABA have finally been resolved.

There have obviously been some misunderstandings in the past, but I can assure you that the EASB, through the Billiards Committee are only interested in promoting the game for the benefit of all players.

I very much enjoyed the English Final, and would like to congratulate all concerned in the organisation and presentation which was excellent.

Best wishes for the success of the magazine.
