“A” team lose unbeaten League record in 31 shot loss at Harrison Park.

The afternoon “A” team suffered their first league defeat of the season yesterday when going down by 31 shots at Harrison Park to also lose the vital aggregate point. On a blistering sunny afternoon and on a quick Harrison Park green the Vics could only manage two winners on the day. Skipper Billy Atkinson, again leading his team in style, won 21-09 and there was a welcome win for last year’s Skipper Brian Ibbotson, when he responded to a last minute call up by winning 21-12. Eddie Clayburn, Elwyn Williams and Mally Johnson all put up spirited performances before all losing out 17-21 in the end. Peter Walker played well before going down 18-21 and Keith Etches was unlucky to miss out on a win, finally losing 20-21 after a fine display. Unfortunately despite these close games, two early single figure losses left the Vics an uphill struggle in their attempt to secure the vital extra point. The Vics do however remain top of the table and can bounce back with a home win against Capenhurst next week to get their title challenge back on course.
