Cambridgeshire Single Barrel 2025

24th August, Priory

Well we had a really nice day at priory for the Cambs single barrel today: no wind and really quite hot, so perfect for good targets and scores. The first squad brought in good scores around the mid 80s then Tim Jones for Cambs came in with a 92 to set the pace and raise the bar a little. He was unbeaten for Cambs until the last squad, with Chris Hall bringing in a wonderful 97 to take the championship in superb fashion.
