High Flying Burks

Wins against Midhurst and Bognor this month see the 1st team in 3rd place of Div.2, just 2 points behind Crawley. With back to back away wins and the remaining games of the season all to be played at home, there is a good chance of strong end to this campaign. Without a win for ...

Biggest Loser Found Off-Court

A lot of losing went on throughout the month of February, but no one more than one Valentine hopeful. Once again it was the 4th team who flew the Bluecoats flag highest. A 3-2 win away at West Worthing ensured the feckless fours would lift off the bottom of Division 4. And yes, Tim Canham ...

Quiet Lions
