IT'S THE DOBNEY SHOW AGAIN BUT CRICH No 1 ON A ROLL

NICK BERRY  added second frame for CRICH No 1

THE HEADLINES once again go to Edgefold's Sean Dobney who struck a magnificent break of 74 to top the charts for a second time, hot on the heels of a previous effort of 55. But teamwise, Crich Comrades No 1 are quietly gathering momentum, scoring their third league win in the last four outings.
Whitworth Institute travelled to School Lane but it was the home team's Paul Trevett who scored a 65-48 success to put the hosts in front.
Nick Berry added a very tight second frame before Mick Ferguson pulled one back for the Darley Dale cuemen.
However Trevett, appearing for a second time with the extra handicap on tow due to player shortages, defied the odds to secure certain victory for the Tramwaymen before Geoff Brailsford and Ferguson reduced arrears to the minimum margin in the concluding doubles frame.

Dobney, mentioned above, was another player to successfully double up with his team a man down as Edgefold overcame Bolehill No 2 3-2 and also added the doubles leg with the help of partner Duncan Harwood.
Mick Bunting top scored for the visitors.

Bolehill No 1 edged out Matlock Golf Club 3-2 with Ricki Slack and Ian Birks winning the deciding doubles leg with a fluked pink after Tony Blant and Graham Jones has nudged the golfers ahead.

Belper Strutt Club cut short Crich No 2's stay at the top with a 4-1 home victory in which Justin Weller was successful in each of his singles and doubles legs while only Martyn Caylow could register for the vanquished.

And in all the all-Alfreton Palmer Morewood clash, the No 1 team registed their opening league victory with a 3-2 verdict over the No 2 outfit.
Des Smith top scored for the victors and also added the deciding doubles frame for good measure with brother John while Andrew Beardsley maintained his good start to the season for their local rivals.

In the OMYA Cup individual competition, the tightest match saw Joe Neville overcome Steven Clark on a respotted black after five highly competitive frames.
