Ronan Whyte finished 5th, he also had 91 points but his frame difference was two less than Aidan’s. He won 30 matches and also made a brilliant century break on the final night when he had a 117 clearance in his first match, another player who has a bright future in front of him.
The organisers would like to thank all the players who competed in this first running of the league this year, to all the players who traveled from Derry, Ballybofey, Donegal town, Ardara and Dungloe for your commitment in helping the league go as smoothly and hopefully we will be back bigger and better next year.
