This week saw champions Anstice A visit the Wellington Billiard Hall A side. Wellington, who played very well against the champions last season as they tried to avoid relegation! gave a good account of themselves. The first frame went to Sean Harris playing some good snooker against Azear Khan. The second game produced some fine snooker as Alan Turner forged a forty lead over Ian Duffy only to watch Ian clear the Table with three reds remaining, to win the frame on the pink. Next up, Graham Darrel rolled back the years with a fine performance against Keith Price winning comfortably. The next frame saw Neil Price win the match by beating newcomer, Andy Yates. In the final frame Andy Kendricks produced a solid game to win against Nick Oakley and leaving Wellington the losers by the odd point.

Broseley had a fine win over Shifnal A beating them 4-1, with Angus Way being the winner for Shifnal A. Mick Brezwyn who seems to have found a second wind made a 48 break in his game against Andy Easthope.

New signing for Shifnal Phil Whitby is still waiting for his first win of the season but after being away from snooker for a while I’m sure his form will soon return! Maddocks A seem to be struggling to find their form as they lost 4-1 to Anstice D, Phil Davies being the only winner for Maddocks A. Codden B played Dawley social and forged a 3-2 win, the highlight for Dawley being Mark Jones fine 47 break against Simon Yeats.

Shifnal B versus Bayley E found the visitors too strong as they came away winning 3-2.

The second division also saw their Shifnal F side lose 3-2 to Minnesota Fats G with Wayne weeks producing a 38 in his match against J. Dickenson. Bayley F recorded a 4-1 win over Maddocks B where Wally Harper produced two breaks of 25 in his match with Tom Maxfield, and came out winning comfortably.

The rest of the team were beaten comprehensively except for Les Hicks who lost by the narrowest of margins to Chris Shaw. Nice to see Les still enjoying his snooker alongside Doug Morrey, another player from my era.

Dawley B had a good win at home to Codden C beating them 4-1 with Barry Roden giving another solid performance for his side. Bayley A went to Maddocks C and came away with a 3-2 win courtesy of wins by Steve Fletcher, Steve Nichols and Chris Morgan Adams.

Maddocks D had a fine 4-1 win over Anstice C who are one of the teams also fielding new players in their division. Jason Mills being the only winner for Anstice C. Newcomers Second Club Trench lost by the odd point to Little Dawley G.

In the third division Bayley D and Bayley Q both had home wins for their teams, Bayley D beating Wellington Billiard Hall B 3-2 and Bayley Q winning 4-1 against Little Dawley J. Little Dawley B went to Newport British Legion and came away with a 3-2 win, with Colin Gittus having a 25 break in his match. Meanwhile, Little Dawley X played Hadley A who once again were beaten 5-0. Hadley will soon be off the mark I’m sure.

Anstice B lost 3-2 at home to Bayley B and finally Minnesota Fats C lost 3-2 to Shifnal D.

I would just mention that if anyone would like to make the odd comment on their scorecard I’m sure I could make the reports more entertaining to those of you who like to read them!
