Belfast were narrow winners in this hard fought match. Abbie Hurley and newcomer Perry Oliver picked up braces and were supported by Dean Chipperfield who managed to get his revenge on Segun Ake, posting his only win. Samuel Berhan did well to fight back from two legs to one down to beat Dean 11,7 in the fifth.
