The 39-year-old helped his country to world success in Malta
Larkhall pool champion Scott Gillespie this week spoke of his pride after leading Scotland to the World Blackball Championships in Malta earlier this month.
But having also been part of the last trophy-winning team, Gillespie says Scotland shouldn’t have gone for so long without it. “When you’re captain you have a bit of say about it, and even though there is a manager, I have my input and bounce ideas off of him, so it’s a big honour.” “The atmosphere in the semi-finals was incredible, there were 350 to 400 people watching, and 400 in the final. Their support was second-to-none.”
