Summer Cup Round 4 Results

Tuesday 16th April

Fourth Round of the Summer Cup

Dave Ireland continued as the only player on 100% winning his game against Kaan. Dave Filer continued his good form winning against John Conway and setting up a match against Dave Ireland in the next Round. There are also still a number of players unbeaten in the Cup - Roy Watson, Ed Goodwin, Sam Cotterill, Bava, Mike Johnson, Stan Whitmore.

Margarita had a good win against Paul Sweatman and is making a strong challenge for the U120 Trophy.

Could I remind all players we are having a break for Easter so no matches next week. (The club will be open for friendly matches)  The next round will be Tuesday 30th April.
