Cannon Cup
2010
This year the Cannon Cup was
held at Jedburgh Badminton Club. Wilton who had managed to hang onto this
trophy for the past few years let their grip loosen this year
and allowed Jed to pull off a good win against a strong Wilton
team. Paul Bishop and John Peters proved to be stronger than
Craig Thom and Michael Patterson on the night with the Jed pair
winning their Gents doubles when they played together and also
their mixed doubles games when Paul partnered Kerry against
Craig and Laura and when John played with Sarah against Michael
Patterson and Tracey. Michael Aitken and Jill played well for
Wilton with each player winning their level and mixed doubles.
Michael Aitken and Scott had a good win over Ben and Tom and
Jill and Marvin proved to be too hot to handle for the Jed pair
of Ann and Myra. Laura and Tracey were beaten by the stronger
pairing of Kerry and Sarah in a thrilling three ender. The
outcome of the match was decided by the final mixed doubles game
which found Scott and Marvin up against Tom and Myra.
Unfortunately for Wilton, Scott ran out of steam and the Jed
pair went on to win the rubber which resulted in Jed winning the
match 5 - 3. Congratulations to Jed on winning a hard fought
Cannon Cup match.
