Campbell, Michelle Silvera, Lynn Cameron and skip Duncan Fernie won all four of their Group A matches before beating Sandy Stevenson 8-4 and Hammy McMillan 6-5 to reach the final. But there they met the high-powered combination of former world champions Ewan MacDonald and Euan Byers and reigning European champion Eve Muirhead who won 5-2.

MacDonald’s all-star team also beat Scottish Schools champion Bruce Mouat and Murrayfield’s John Hamilton.
