Competition Report - Sunday 2nd December:
With a bit of a scorcher forecast, some extra teams turned up to the beach and we witnessed some great close matches. 10 men's and 7 women's teams took to the sand, many of whom had also played in the mixed pairs on Saturday! Winners in the men's were David Hunt & Duncan McGlashan, who won a very keenly fought match 2-1 against first-time finalists Phillip & Rob Bessell. In the women's draw, it was Steph Heneker & Dannielle Hunt taking another title from arch-rivals Carla Petrie & Rose Wilcox.
