 Yesterday, Lloyd Rollins, an ardent dominoes fan, at a simple ceremony held at Trophy Stall, Bourda Market, presented the third place trophy to organiser Wiltshire.

Rollins in brief remarks, exhorted Wiltshire to ensure that the level of discipline is of a high standard and wished the teams well.

Rollins said that he is always happy to be involved in the sport.

Wiltshire, who is the captain of Mix Up one of the top teams in the country, expressed gratitude to Rollins for the gesture.
