During Old Scholars Week, the annual snooker match lit up the Naval & Military Club with great energy and camaraderie. Both teams brought their best, fielding 8 players each for a lively mix of singles and doubles across two tables.

Fast-paced, short-format frames kept things exciting. PAOC showed strong spirit, keeping several frames competitive and taking it down to the last few balls. But SPOC’s consistent form prevailed, sealing a 13–4 victory!

Special shout-outs:

Michael Brock for playing despite a recent leg injury.

Josh Crook, our youngest player, impressed in his debut.

Thanks to all SPOC legends: Richard Colley (WDK 1977), Jake Howie (MAC 1976), Michael Brock, Karl Kirsten (YNG 1992), Jon Cocks (FLL 1973), Andy Paull (SHT 1987), Andrew Bishop (FLL 1974), Josh Crook (S & A 2020) & Convenor Jason Ahmad (FLL 1987).

Big props to PAOC for a competitive showing, especially Convenor Nick Blanch. Always a highlight of the week!
