Tim Young’s rich vein of form continued at Bantry, his home road, when he won the Mick Owen Cup final at the expense of Wayne Parkes.

He dominated from the start, leading by almost a bowl after two to McSweeney’s farm. He played his next one to the right giving Parkes a chance to close the gap. He was too tight left with his reply though and beat the tip by just ten metres to still leave almost a bowl between them.
