At second womens Sharon Kelly and Janet Sayle of Marown edged the first game 23/21 against Margaret Daughen and Charlotte Dougherty who fought back well to take the next two games 21/19 21/10.

An injury struck Fencibles team were unable to stop the charge of Castletown/Abbey who are still yet to drop a point in men's league 2. Acting captain Nick Ardern and Ben Moore of Fencncibles in the final game of the evening against Fingal and Baillie Watterson, fought back after a first end loss 21/7 to win the second 21/18 and take the only points of the evening away from Castletown/Abbey. The experienced Castletown Abbey players had little difficulty in establishing and maintaining a lead in most matches. The most convincing of wins came as Damian Peter and Chris Gregory of Castletown/Abbey sailed past Mark Quayle and Ben Swindlehurst 21/13 21/14, however there were also close matches. Fencibles' Ardern and Quayle were unlucky to be beaten 21/20 by Baillie Watterson and Peter in the tightest of ends. The result leaves both teams clear at either end of the league table halfway through the season. Castletown/Abbey continue to push for promotion while struggling at the bottom of league two, having not won a point for two years, a second consecutive relegation is a real concern for Fencibles. BW
