Tournament Chart:
2023 CSNS Womens Amateur 9-Ball Provincials were held April 29 and 30 at Century Snooker Club in New Glasgow. 14 Ladies vied for the title.
The final came down to Desiree Marshall of Eskasoni versus Leigh Ann Giles of Herring Cove. The pair had already met earlier in the event, in the A-side semi-finals, with Giles winning 7-3. Giles had then gone on to defeat Brenna Sylliboy 7-2 to earn her spot in the finals.
After her initial defeat at the cue of Giles, Marshall went to the one-loss side to down Audrey Ozon of Dartmouth 6-5, Cheryl Maloney of Indian Brook 6-0, and fellow Eskasonian Sylliboy 6-5, setting up the final matchup with Giles.
The final was a tighter affair, but it was Giles holding her nerve to emerge the victor again 9-7, becoming this year's Ladies Amateur 9-Ball Champion.
Giles earned the right to represent Nova Scotia at the CSBS Amateur 9-Ball Nationals to be held in Toronto in September.
