Its congtratulations to Castle Pool Team from the Carrick & District Pool League who won the Willie Lucas Super 7s Competition held in Laverys Pool Hall, Belfast on Sunday 5th June. It was sweet success this year for Derek Whiteside's team as they were runners up in the competition last year.
In the final they beat Larne League team Coast Road, in what was an absorbing match. It finished all square at 7-7 after the 14 frames, but Dee Irwin took out a fine finish in the play off decider to take the trophy back down the M5 to Carrick.
