Mixed League 3
Duncan Lawrie Selborne C 2 Citywing Vikings B 16
Vikings B confirmed their promotion with another emphatic win, very well done to them. Disappointing result for Selborne C however - leaves them five points ahead of Fencibles B and relying on St Ninians B to do well in the final match in this league. Selborne were fielding two reserves at second mens who hadn't featured in mixed matches this season - Sid McKnight and Ean Crellin. Both played really well despite losing 17/21 13/21 to Mark Falconer and David Craig. Selborne’s Renee Michalogiannis and Gill Young were also unlucky not to get anything from their 18/21 19/21 loss to Lynda Cadamy and Yvonne Falconer. Neil and Ray McMullen for Selborne won their first game 22/20but lost the second and third games against Neil Brew and an improving Sam Mills, while Denise Foxton and Fiona Brew took first womens in two games for Vikings. Mark and Yvonne Falconer won fourth mixed 21/13 21/13 versus Crellin and Michalogiannis who gave it a good go. McKnight and Gill Young then did well to get Selborne's other point when losing 21/9 18/21 13/21 to Craig and Cadamy, before Vikings won the top two mixed. RM
