The Everglades girls took an early lead in the final and after 8 ends the score was 8 – 4 in their favour but by the 12th end Jan had drawn level at 9 all. On the 14th end Jan’s team scored a 5 and jumped to a 16 – 9 lead. From that point on they never looked back. Although holding shot on the last end Tracy needed 9 to win the game. In true Tracy style of never giving up she tried to kill the end so as to have another go at getting that all important 9. The game was played in good spirits and although the afternoon became very cool a number of spectators stayed until the end.
