Due to a printing error, the Winchester v Woolston Southampton and District BA Combination 3 fixture showed both teams playing away.

Winchester duly went to Woolston, while Woolston travelled to Winchester.

When the error was realised, however, Woolston returned to their own green and played the match as well as hastily arranging after-match refreshments.

Winchester were obviously hungrier for the points coming out on top 5-1 (55-40)!

A 33-8 corker from John Wise carried Atherley to their 4-1 (81-60) Combination 1 victory at Woolston.

In Combination 3, Romsey shaded Banister Park 57-56 to earn 4 points in a game where one rink was tied and the others decided by one and two shots.

Rink scores: (Banister Park first) A Mason 19 D Condon 19; R Janaway 15 M Phillips 14; R Davis 22 G Massie 24.

In another Combination 3 single-shot verdict, Brockenhurst edged home 58-57 against Old Green to earn a five-pointer.

Rink scores: (Brockenhurst first) D Blackwell 10 B Brooks 27; A Roach 21 B Burton 17; M Jones 27 D George 13.

A 22-8 win from A Allen against A Lovett gave Bitterne a 4-2 (55-54) Combination 4 verdict at Banister Park and Totton and Eling's 4-2 (77-70) victory against Hedge End was due to the lone 35-13 win of V Willsher.
