After failing to come up with a single win the previous week, the New Milton Club’s teams chalked up a very impressive six wins out of ten matches last week. The B team in Div 1 were gifted a 10-0 victory and four points as Lynwood A were sadly unable to put out a side. Five of Milton’s teams (C, D, E G & H) were relieved to get off the mark with their first wins of the season, and the K team were ascloseasthis in joining them in the pantheon of latter-day victors. Milton were 5-4 up going into the doubles when Lucy Craddock and Fern Daish took on the Bourne pairing of Jonathan Gibson and Adam Garraway. The ladies, buoyed up by their two singles wins each, were hitting very well and they were level pegging at 2-2 after the fourth set. Victory was not to be however as the fifth and final set just slipped from their grasp as they just lost by 9-11.

Fern Daish came up with two wins for her K team
