DOUBLE winners Mitre ‘A’ added the York John Smith’s Sunday Pool League team knockout trophy to their league title after beating Clifton Hotel 5-2.

Clifton took a scrappy opening frame through Bri Baxter, but Mitre hit back in the second with Graham Worcester cashing in on a foul from Steve Scott junior with a fine seven-ball clearance.

Dave Catlow then put Mitre in control by taking the next two frames.

Clifton captain Jonny Mitchell could only stand and watch a brilliant display of potting as Chris Leaf broke off and cleared up to put Mitre within one frame of victory.

Bri Baxter pulled one back for Clifton against the unlucky Phil Bean, but Mitre clinched the match in the following frame with Graham Carling holding his nerve to beat Steve Scott senior.

After the match, the league trophies were presented by chairman Alwyn Hardy.
