The draw:- Jason Banks and Paul Foster MBE vs Chris Carruthers and Justin Wright (Australia) sees them in action on Sunday, January 7 in the afternoon.

Jason being in the top rankings automatically goes into the World Pairs Championship. He enters at the last 16 stage.

He has been drawn with Paul Foster, a fellow Scot, who has won this Championship on five occasions and is seeded no 1 in the World.

The Australian Pair had to come through a tough tournament to qualify.

The winners of this contest enter the quarter finals and will meet Jason Greenslade (England) along with Mike Stepney (Elgin Scotland) or a Qualifier pair next day.

We all wish Jason and Paul every good wish for a successful Championship.
