Speared, but what fun! DESPITE having just four players, Dennis and his intrepid Palms Pool Bar team, who made the long trip to Spear Chuckers, were rewarded handsomely with a brilliant night of banter. Okay, they lost 8-0, but the evening was all about enjoyment, as it should be, and they had no complaints. Phoenix Bar welcomed Picasso’s Pool Bar and won 7-1, thanks to their superb finishing, while Boothen travelled to league leaders Scruffy Macs, and came away with an unexpected 6-2 victory. Steve, again in fine form for the visitors, chalked up his latest maximum, and the home side failed to hit their doubles, as they
normally do. Waterfall visited The Loch-In A, taking them all the way to the trebles, in which the home team scraped through for a 5-3 win. But, again, well played Waterfall! Pas O Nadas A failed to post any high scores of merit, but they still secured a 6-2 success against Sundowners. In Division 2, the games appeared to be one-sided, apart from the match between Buzzin B’s and Pas O Nadas B, which went to the wire. The home team came out on top with a lastgame win. A special mention for Gio, who missed a 170 check-out by a whisker. Sandys regained top spot with a comprehensive 7-1 win over Marilyns B, and, with an identical scoreline, the bragging rights went to Naughty Nautas, who beat close rivals Nauta No-

Boxing
Too hot to handle
CHARACTER is often shown by how teams react to disappointments, and Arona Tenerife Sur showed their mettle to put their Queen’s Cup Final choker behind them. They blitzed their way to another 3-0 away win in the league, as CV San

Cugat of Madrid felt the full force. A close 2523 first-set win got the
show going, and this was followed by 25-19 and 25-17 scores. This latest triumph lifts Arona to third place in Spain’s premier league, and they are gunning for that second spot. Tomorrow (Saturday) at 6pm, they host VP Madrid in the Los Cristianos sports centre, by the open-air swimming complex.
Frampton’s peak fitness RUNNING up to Mount Teide National Park would exhaust most people, but it was just one round in a 10-day training trip to Tenerife for Belfast boxer Carl Frampton. The 31-year-old, in Tenerife with a few other fighters, put himself through a punishing schedule, ahead of his 21st April fight against Nonito Donair, in the Belfast Arena. Frampton, former world champion at featherweight and super-bantamweight, is on the comeback trail, aiming for a world title fight in 2019. Boxing is as much
about the state of mind these days, as well as physical condition, and Carl is at his peak. “We had a run up Teide, and the altitude makes it a good test,” he said. “We’ve been training hard and sparring hard, trying to batter each other. But we’ve been having fun as well, and I’ve
never been happier as a boxer as I am right now.” He certainly packed a lot into the visit: some training at the Povedano gym in the Las Americas stadium, plus beach time at Fañabe. And he also took in the CD Tenerife v Real Oviedo game.
