With Reading 4 - 3 up the crucial set eight matched Reading's unbeaten Antony Alleyne against OLOP's unbeaten Abhay Gore and it was Abhay who came out on top. Fittingly the final set went to a deciding game, Hari Laddunuri capitalising on his five point advantage to win the match for OLOP. More match details to be posted on this weeks Press Release.

The Team Handicap came to an enthralling climax with Sonning Common E beating their club mates Sonning Common D 5-4 at the Sonning Common club. It was a thrill a minute final with the D team taking the lead 1-0, 2-1 then 3-2 . Two wins for the E team made it 4-3 before a win for Mark Jones over Eric Walker made it 4-4. However a last gasp win for Thomas Perkins over Derek Wavell secured the win for the 'E' team.
So it's congratulations to Sonning Common E and well done to all who took part, particularly Joe Barraclough who won 3 sets for the E team.
