Camps "2" player Ryan Carter defeated former team mate James Riach in the final of the third annual Children In Need Pool Tournament this past Saturday. Carter defeated Des Mcleod 3-1 in the last 16 before he went on to face 2 time champion David Hendry in the quarter finals. Carter (who was defeated 3-2 in the previous two years finals against Hendry) exacted his revenge as he won 3-0 against his Camps "2" team mate. Another 3-0 win in the semi finals (This time against Camps "1" player Liam More) saw him reach his third final in a row. Riach defeated Greg Thomson in the last 16 thanks to a 3-1 scoreline, and then went on to face an in-form Mark Mcdonald in the quarters. Mark was playing well and left Riach with 7-balls as he knocked in an 8-ball clearance to take the match to a deciding frame. A close match ended with Riach edging out Mcdonald 3-2. Shane Honeyman put up a good effort against Riach in the semi-final but lost out 3-1. The final was played to an extremely high standard which saw Riach take a 3-2 lead after some close tactical frames. Carter left Riach with 7 balls on the table in frame 6 before winning the decider to become the 2012 Children In Need champion.
