Afternoon “A” still unbeaten after tremendous 5 shot away win at Albany.

Billy Atkinson’s afternoon “A” team continued their fine unbeaten start to the season with a close and exciting 5 shot win at Albany yesterday afternoon. Billy led his team in fine style with a tremendous 21-06 win, which was to prove so crucial to the overall score. Andrew Stratton and Eddie Clayburn, both winning 21-18, had started things off for the Vics after both Mally Johnson and Bernie Owen had lost their respective games. Dick Peake with a 21-17 win and Peter Walker, showing fine winning form, with a good 21-10 victory kept the Vics in the match after Elwyn Williams had gone down in a tight individual game 17-21. With Billy Atkinson running away with his game, it was left to George Morgan and Robby Franklin to garner enough points for the win and with George coming out on top 21-20 in a tight tussle, Robby required 13 points to seal victory for the Vics. Robby managed to get to 17-21 to give the Vics another 2 points and a win by 5 shots. The Vics lost this corresponding fixture by 76 shots last year and understandably Skipper Atkinson was delighted with his team’s performance.
