Congratulations to Ryan Prosser and & Emily Kernick who successfully defended the W&W Mixed Pairs crown they won last year, in this year's final which was held at Woodbourne Sports on Sunday 28th August.
Eight pairs qualified for the finals and in their opening game, Ryan and Emily were drawn against 2021s losing finalists Ben Harris & Michelle Jones. In a tight game, the defending champs won 21-18.
In the semi-finals, they were drawn against Andy Saunders & Jess Bennett who they defeated to 13. This set up a final against Glen Herbert & Sarah Hall, their path to the final included a first-round win against Jason Galvin & Tracey Baker 21-6 and a narrow semi-final victory over Greg Smith & Rachel Bennett 21-20.
The final was a fairly comfortable affair for the defending champions who came out on top 21-5 to lift the trophy for the second year running.
Unfortunately, neither the champions or runners-up can represent Warwick & Worcester at the National finals at Owley Wood Recreation Club, Barrymore Road, Weaverham CW8 3LS on Saturday 1st October, commencing at 10 am.
So our 4 county representatives are:
Ben Harris & Michelle Jones
Andy Saunders & Jess Bennett
Jason Galvin & Tracey Baker
Callum Mitchell & Amy Dandy
