Waterbowl 2026

The Trophy's first outing was Waterbowl 2026 in Stockport, UK - and what drama there was!

First, reigning champ #164 Purplegoo managed a defense against dusher1, before losing to new titleholder #165 Sporran in the next round.

Sporran finished day 1 defending against many-time former champion #054 Pipey, but lost out again the following day to... Round 1 contender and new champion #166 dusher1, who grabbed the title at the second attempt and saw the weekend out with two strong defences of his new crown.

dusher1's next defence will be up in Scotland for the Mulligan's Open (Scottish Nationals), so if you fancy yourself the next Eternal Turnover Lineal Champion then you know where to go...

Thanks to all champs from this competition for keeping in touch and sending over pictures, I'll let you know when the Champions tokens are ready.
