The first semi paired Rose with Alison Perry (Edwardstone White Horse) and she had too much experience, winning through 1,420-510.
The second semi proved to be a close game with Janet Whymark (Edwardstone White Horse) holding her own early on. But when Reeve scored a mid-game 400 it was to prove vital and enabled her to win 1,140-700.
Rose took the first leg of the best-of-three final with a comprehensive 760-220 victory. Reeve hit back in a tight second leg, scoring a last ball 30 to win 840-830.
The deciding leg saw Reeve scoring breaks of 420 and 450 to take a decisive advantage. Rose fought back with a 460 break, but Reeve ran out 1,550-1,050 winner.
