In the two higher divisions the competition was very tight, but in division three Sonia Maude 22/12 broke through for her inaugural win as she continued her recent good form to come home with a wet sail.

After losing her first set she won the next three to swamp Max Risstrom and David Rowbotham who dead-heated for second with 19/15 each of two.

In division two Gabe Kirby 22/17 held sway with a stylish and close victory ahead of visitors Josh Maude 22/18 and Kelvin Maude 23/19 in the minor placings. Patrick Murray came a close fourth with 23/21.

In division one it all came down to the wire as first Winston Silbereisen and then Greg Malcher lost their final sets in 6/7 tie-breaks, resulting in Winston winning 26/18 by a game over Greg 25/18. Adrian Maude with 24/19 snuck in for third ahead of Bernie Frith 23/21.
