DUNMURRY OPEN 2007 ------------------ Kenny Beggs beat Barry Spence 1-0 in a hard-fought final, scoring the only goal early in the 2nd Half. Barry pressurised for the remainder of the game but was unable to take advantage of several clear-cut opportunities. Joe McRoberts took 3rd place with a shoot-out victory over Yorkshire's Martin Hodds, following an entertaining 3-3 draw. Fourteen players took part in the Open. There was no seeding and we experimented with a different format. The 1st Round consisted of 4 groups, with the top two players in each group progressing to the 2nd Round. Instead of the usual knockout stages commencing, however, there were two more groups. The top two players in these groups went through to the semi-finals. The Plate was played to a similar format and eliminated players then played-off to determine overall position. The new NITFA Live Update service was in operation for the first time.
