At the end of the usual 12-hour marathon day Mark Kiteley and Dan Grant emerged victorious, in a tense three-gamer, over first-time finalists Alan Bowden and Henry Jefferies. Gareth Price’s report – of a day on which the venerable President of the RFA, Bernard Atkinson, played at one end of the age-range and the youngest member of the RFA, 17 year-old Lewis Keates, won the Mate’s Plate with Will Ellison – will follow when Gareth has recharged his batteries.
