Two previous winners of the Huddersfield Merit contested the 2023 Final when Thongsbridge bowler Jack Dyson beat Josh Brown (Kirkheaton Con) 21-15 in the Final at Golcar Lib on Saturday. Jack is on a bit of a roll having also won the Marsh United 2500 the previous weekend.
It was a 9.30am start for the 62 entries in the Huddersfield Merit which were divided over four greens (Broad Oak, Outlane, Longwood and Crosland Moor) with the last eight from each of those qualifying rounds passing through to the final stages at Golcar Lib.
The qualifying rounds were all played on Saturday with that early start and then the Last 32 progressed through to the Finals at Golcar Lib later on the same day.
