Association matches

We lost to Wrest Park away in the Longman Cup 2-5 and to Bristol away 3-4 in the Mary Rose.

The latter match was very tight until the end of the seventh game.

We wish the winners good luck in their next round.

In the WMF we lost 2-5 to Kenilworth

Halse Cup

We held our first competition of the season recently with twelve competitors from Kenilworth, Stourbridge and Edgbaston.

This is a friendly, handicap event which everyone seemed to enjoy inn very reasonable weather.

It was won by our Chairman Ian Slater after a play off. Congratulations.
