The 3rd had a close match on Thursday narrowly losing to Village Hyde. Mark "Worzel" Bowden was on first against Oli Woodcock, every game could have gone either way but Oli won 3-0.
Next up was Liam Toop and, again, this result could have been different had Liam been on better form against the tricky Dave Highcock, Dave winning 3-1.
Then Neil "Wokky" Turnbull went on court against ex Hydonian Tony Coop and at 2-0 up "the Wok" went to sleep letting Tony back into the match levelling at 2-2. But the Wok woke up for the decider winning it 11-4 and the match 3-2.
Steve Korny made light work of his match winning 3-0.
Finally Jamel "Jammy" Johnson in the showdown decider. Close but no cigar, Jammy lost 3 zip.
A welcome break for Hyde next week! Back in a fortnight to start getting some points on the board!
