HUDDERSFIELD’S Open Billiards champion Matthew Peaker is a man at the top of his game at the moment.

The Brockholes Bowling Club player was in terrific form in his latest Yorkshire Billiards League run-out when he scored his second century break of the season for Huddersfield’s first team, against the town’s second team when they clashed at New Mill Club.

Up against Jeremy Ford, Peaker made a break of 48 on his first visit to the table, and followed that shortly after with a break of 102, before running out with a unfinished break of 32, scoring 180 in just three visits to defeat his opponent 200-17 in a frame lasting just 25 minutes.

His No1 teammate Steve Whiteley defeat Julian Hodge 200-118, before David Peaker (Matt’s father) went down to John Ingleby 200-180, the latter having a break of 54.

Peaker (junior) had warmed up for his Yorkshire match by slotting in a break of 88 in his Huddersfield Open League match against Upper Hopton’s John Wilson.

That was Brockholes’ only success however as Steve Holmes and Denis Rourke (with a break of 48) ensured a 2-1 win for the Hopton men.

In what was a good week for Billiards breaks, Whiteley defeated another Huddersfield Open champion Brian Cousen with a 63 break, while the Lindley player also topped the half-century mark with 52, as did New Mill B team’s John Bowden with the same mark.

On the Snooker front, Chris Thorpe, from League-leaders Marsden Liberal A team, had the week’s best break of 50 and another of 36 in the victory over Bob Pickup which helped seal a 2-2 draw with Top Spot A.
