Riddaway gets England call
Incoming Bedfordshire Junior Pool Captain, Josh Riddaway, 16, (Greenfield), followed in the footsteps of outgoing Captain Tom Church (Wilden), by qualifying to play for England this weekend at the English Junior Pool Trials at Club 147 in Leicester.
Last year, Josh trialled for the first time and missed out by one frame, but this time around, he stormed through, winning all six matches to become the winner of the trials and the one person to qualify on the Saturday.
Riddaway’s first duty as an England player will be to compete in the internal trials in Yarmouth at the end of March, at which time the England manager will pick the nine players from the squad that she will take to the World Championships in Blackpool at the end of June.
Josh’s team-mates Joel Riddaway (Greenfield), and James Molloy (Dunstable) both had good debuts at the trials but were unable to make it to the second day. Adam Toms (Brogborough) also missed out again, his third attempt.
