The Malcolm Keenor Trophy will consist of 5 frames which are decided by a random draw, with the team that scores the highest number of total points over the course of five frames being the winner.

Each team will have a handicap which is applied at the start of the first four frames, with each being played to the black (the black has to be potted.)

The total points for those four frames are added up, and the difference is then the handicap start for the final frame PLUS the fifth frame’s handicap, which is then played as a standard frame.

So for example if one team had a handicap start per frame of 10 points and then won the first four frames by 5 points they would be 20 points up at the start of the fifth frame PLUS the 10 point handicap for the fifth frame, so they would have an advantage of 30 points. Hope that makes sense!

The handicaps for each team, which are applied per frame are as follows –

Canton Libs A – 0 points
Savoy A – 0
Taff’s Well B – 0

Mackintosh – 5

Cuesaders – 15
Canton Libs Z – 15
Cathays Cons – 15
Savoy B – 15
Senghenydd – 15
Taff’s Well A – 15

Canton Libs B – 20
Park Club – 20
Rumney British Legion – 20

South Wales Snooker – 25
