New Milton Table Tennis Club came up with its best set of results in the Bournemouth and District league so far this season as their teams won 7 out of their 9 matches. The club’s only defeat came at the hands of one of their own teams in Div 5 as the J team walloped the K team by 9-1.

The D team (Div 2) were particularly chuffed and relieved to finally get off the mark with a win, thanks to an inspirational hat-trick from captain Terry Jenvey in their 7-3 victory over basement boys Bmth Sports K. There were hat-tricks galore as can be seen from the detailed results below, but a couple of players merit a special mention. This season’s new signing Matthew Winter shone as not only did he come up with a hat-trick without dropping a set for his H team in Div 4, but he also bagged a brace as he played up a division for the G team in Div 3.

15 year old Lucy Craddock helped spare her K team’s blushes as she played really well to beat the very handy Sam Watkins to pick up the K team’s only win in their derby against the J team in Div 5.
