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.
