DRS Electrical decided to withdraw their sponsorship of the DRS Pairs Snooker competition due to the current financial climate. As a result, at the October Faber Shield Committee meeting, the representatives of each club decided to bring the competition to an end.

However at the November Faber Shield Meeting a new sponsor emerged. Steve Burdett is to sponsor the newly formed Dave Burdett Trophy. The competition will be played using the traditional format of the winners of each club's Pairs competitions competing against each other over best of 3 frames with a final to be held on Monday 15th March.

To add a new dimension to the tournament, handicapping will be used for the first time. This will be done by taking the average of the pairs' league handicaps. Click here to view the draw.

The move to the new website is complete and the new address - www.fabershield.co.uk - should be easier for you all to remember!

You may think that the site looks no different but it is! I have moved the site over to PHP making use of a MYSQL database to streamline the site and make it easier to maintain in the future..
