The Scottish Pool Association Super 11s Championships were held at Craig Tara Holiday Park in Ayr between the 18th-20th March 2011. Two teams from Whitburn started their respective campaigns on the Friday night. Whitburn A made hard work of their first match against East Kilbride B but in the end edged them out in a final frame decider, 6-5. Meanwhile Whitburn B were engaged in a ding dong battle against our West Lothian neighbours, Livingston A. The match went to the wire with Livingston winning another final frame decider. It didnt take Whitburn B long to dispose of East Ayrshire A 9-2 the next morning while Whitburn A struggled to find form and went down to Kilsyth A by the same scoreline. Next up for Whitburn A was Doon Valley and again this one went to the wire with the Whitburn boys taking the honours 6-5. Whitburn B had another tough match against Uddingston B and came through it also 6-5 winners. Both teams went into the Saturday evening sessions having won 2 of their first 3 matches. Whitburn A finished off the group matches with a 6-5 win over Bannockburn A and a 5-6 defeat at the hands of Central Ayrshire A, finishing 3rd in Group 1 and qualifying for the Last 32 knockout stage. Whitburn B had a tougher task on the Saturday evening, facing up to two teams widely tipped as potential Champions. First up a 3-8 defeat to Avondale A followed by a defeat at the hands of the eventual champions, Edinburgh A. All of this meant Whitburn B finished 5th in Group 4, missing out in a place in the knockout stage by just one frame. Going into the Sunday knockout stages Whitburn A had yet to produce the kind of form they are capable of. That was to change in the Last 32 though when they disposed of the 2008 champions, Paisley A very convincingly 6-2 to reach the Last 16. Another tough match awaited Whitburn in the Last 16 against Uddingston A but yet again Whitburn produced to take the match 6-3 and proceed to the Quarter Finals where they were to face off with Central Ayrshire yet again. The Ayrshire team produced some very solid pool to win the match 6-3 and deny Whitburn of a place in their first ever Superleague semi. All in all a very successful weekend for both Whitburn teams. Congratulations to our two captains, John Reid and Steven Moir and to each and every one of the players in both A and B teams.
