Division Two
Cheltenham D Tackle Sara's
Tewkesbury A recorded a narrow 6-4 victory over Saracens B. Rob Amphlett gained a maximum, and was well supported by John Goodchild and Simon Lockley who won one each. Dennis Wadley grabbed a brace for Saracens. Amphlett and Lockley combined to take a close doubles that decided the encounter Tewkesbury’s way.

Cheltenham D were 7-3 winners against high-flying Saracens D. John Gaskell claimed a maximum for Cheltenham, although he was pushed to 13-11 in the fifth in a close encounter with Mark Nally. Dave Green claimed a good brace for Cheltenham, losing out to Tony Iles, whilst Neil Penny and Nally both overcame Anand Kershav for Saracens. Gaskell and Green took the doubles having fallen behind early on. 

Smiths D claimed a hard-fought 6-4 win over Winchcombe Warriors, despite the efforts of Warriors’ Richard Bishop who remained unbeaten on the night. Braces of wins for Chris Ball and Dave Mackman helped Smiths on their way. Mike Gleeson chipped in with one win and then combined with Ball to take the doubles. Ball was unlucky to go down 11-9 in the fifth to the impressive Bishop.

Winchcombe Wizards recorded yet another whitewash as they stormed to a comprehensive victory over Tirley Tigers. Keith Ferguson, Chris Lane and Stewart Ratcliffe all claimed easy maximums, with only one game in the whole evening going beyond three sets, that being Tony Saxton’s encounter against Lane.

CCS A claimed an important 6-4 win over Cheltenham E. David Hart was the pick of the players, claiming an excellent maximum, although he was pushed all the way by Christine Williams, winning 14-12 in the fifth. Steve Murton won two for CCS A, but Williams led the fight back for Cheltenham, winning her other two matches comfortably, and she was well supported by juniors Jamie Makepeace and Luke Doyle who won one each. Hart and Murton combined to take the deciding doubles in five sets having been 2-0 down.

Saracens C earned a pleasing draw against Cheltenham F, thanks to braces of wins for Dave Cosnette and Tony Walsh. Alan Harvey and Matt Mulcahy responded with two wins apiece for Cheltenham. Harvey was unfortunate not to win all three in a titanic battle with Dave Cosnette, losing out 12-14, 13-15, 11-3, 11-9, 9-11. Martin Cosnette claimed a further win for Saracens, but a good doubles performance by Harvey and Mulcahy salvaged a draw for Cheltenham.
