Prime Minister David Cameron opened the Worlds first Aunt Sally Singles Championship yesterday.
The event, held at the 14th Charlbury Beer Festival, attracted some of the best players in the World, mainly Oxfordshire, leagues. 32 competitors fought stick by stick until local player, George Williams and Trevor Dyer form The Churchill Arms in Paxford met in the final.
Trevor won the final leg to take The Finings Cup and the £100 winners prize. He keeps a replica of the World Cup. This will be engraved and kept on display at the CAMRA award winning Rose and Crown pub in Charlbury.
Thanks go to our sponsors and to Rob Tudge and George Williams for organising the day.
Please see our website for next years final, many more players are anticipated.
Allyn Parsons won the all comers compeition which followed the World Championship.
No Dollys were hurt in the making of this competition, but a few sore heads this morning for some of those who supported the Beer Festival.
The event raised nearly £20,000 for local and international charities.
