Match Report
Mayflower Sportsman 1 missed a major opportunity to put pressure on Lodgers B at the top of the table, only managing a draw against stablemates Mayflower Sportsman 2, who could only field two players on the night! No. 2 ranked Darron Kent did what needed to be done, taking both of his singles in straight ends to give them a guaranteed draw but the wily veteran Tony Hall and Wayne Grooby proved to be stubborn opposition, both of them taking victories against Alex and Tim Pexton. Tony Hall in particular did extremely well to come from two sets down against Alex Pexton. With the match poised at 4-5 in favour of Mayflower 1, a victory in the doubles was needed to seal the win for Mayflower 1. It was Darron and Alex who took on Tony and Wayne and after three ends, they were on course for victory, leading 1-2. Tony and Wayne though were having none of it and put in two strong ends to take victory and a well earned draw.
