The NIPA are pleased to announce that we are now taking entries for our 2 Competitions at the Park Plaza Hotel in February. First up is our exciting new WILLIE LUCAS MEMORIAL Super 7s Team Competition followed the next day by the Northern Ireland Mens Championships. Reigning Champion, Rab Fee from Antrim will be out to retain his title, whilst runner up, Larne's Neil McKelvey, will hope to go one better in what was a fantastic Final to watch. It took a classy break & dish in the deciding frame by Rab to give him a 5-4 win.
