The Barbados National Dominoes Association’s annual Three-Hand Championship concluded with stunning upset victories and dominant performances, as two individual champions and one top-tier team claimed their crowns after competing against more than 150 registered participants across the island. In the women’s individual division, Camille Jack delivered a masterclass in domino strategy from her very first round, establishing an unassailable lead early in the competition. By the final table, she had built an insurmountable six-point gap over her closest competitor, with Sherry Ann Dawson securing the runner-up position and Shirlan Brathwaite rounding out the top three. The men’s division told a far more dramatic story: Kirk Davis got off to a rocky start, trailing early leader Mark Layne for most of the competition, with Derick Morris also holding a position ahead of Davis for much of the tournament. When Davis’ chances of claiming the title seemed all but gone, the competitor found his rhythm, putting together a string of high-scoring rounds that allowed him to surge past both of his leading opponents and take the men’s national crown. Layne ended the tournament as men’s runner-up, while Morris claimed third place. The standout team competition, the Super Royale Three-Hand final, saw the Peace and Love squad put on a cohesive, high-performance display that propelled them to the top spot over competing teams Eastbourne and De Law. Team member David Blenman turned in a standout individual performance for the champions, notching 16 points to contribute to Peace and Love’s overall final score of 85. Eastbourne, the second-place finishers, ended the contest with a cumulative total of 75 points. Meanwhile, De Law, which had shown strong promise in the early rounds of the team competition, failed to maintain its momentum in the final and finished third with a total score of 70. Looking ahead, the upcoming Emerson Mellows tournament is scheduled to kick off this Sunday, with matches set to be hosted at venues across Barbados.
