Due to the resounding support and in order to get the games finished by 6.00 pm all rounds were timed. Nevertheless, the event ran into a timing problem and it was with great reluctance that it was found necessary to reduce the already allotted time for the last two round robin rounds as well as the Semi Final and the Final in the Triples. Quite clearly a re-think is necessary to eliminate a similar problem next year to probably run these two very popular disciplines over two days.
In the Triples fourteen teams were grouped into two teams of five and one team of four with again the winning team from each group plus the highest scoring runner-up going into the Semi Final.
Semi Final
Winners Group 1 Charlie Waling, Jean & Derek Retchless played the winners of Group 3 Marianne Taylor, John Franklin & Maureen Fyson. Marianne, John & Maureen won 5 - 2.
Winners Group 2 Margaret Newton, Josie Charter & Barrie Newton played the highest scoring runners-up Reg Lowther, Bill Harrison & Joe Peters. Reg, Bill & Joe won 5 - 2.
The Triples Final was a very tight scoring affair with an extra end needed to decide that Reg Lowther, Bill Harrison & Joe Peters would be the 2016 Triples County Champions.
