In Division One a hat-trick from Ed Lush saw Sonning Common & Peppard B draw 5-5 with Tilehurst RBL A, Ed manging an excellent 11-3 11-2 12-10 win over Marc Brent.

Matt Isherwood managed a good 13-11 9-11 9-11 11-8 11-8 win over Keith Winter and Matt Stone also picked up a win after he beat Marc Brent 11-9 11-7 11-9. Tilehurst’s draw saw them climb up to sixth in the final table.

Tilehurst Methodists A gave their hopes of avoiding relegation from division 2 a boost with a 7-3 win at relegated Our Lady of Peace C with yet another maximum for Eric Van Looy.

The set of the night was between OLOP’s Pradeep Desh and Bill Stamatiou with Pradeep recovering from two games down to win 13-11 in the fifth.

Two days later Tilehurst Methodists were in action again at home to Tilehurst RBL B which resulted in a very hard fought 5-5 draw, a result which gives Tilehurst Meths a very good chance of avoiding relegation.

All but one set in this match went to four or five with the stand out two being the Methodists Jess Eassom recovering from 2-1 down to edge out John Willcocks 13-11 in the fifth.
