'A' Team

'B' Team

 

 

It what has always been a tough match its vital to get a good start, and the boys did just that. We raced into a 3 - 0 lead before Northants got a frame on the board. We then took another 3 in a row to got 6 - 1 up. Northants rallied a little but we managed to take the first section 8 - 3.
4/4 - Luke Mills, Jamie Hobby & Vivek Makh
 
3/4 - Phil Parkin 
The second section saw Northants come out firing on all cylinders but the lads took it in their stride as they shared frames. But Northants eventually took the section 6 - 5.

The third section was more of the same as again Northants edge it 6 - 5 despite all the lads performing well But we weren't at panic stations just yet as we still lead 18 - 15.

In the fourth and final sections the lads were back on form taking it 6 -5 with Vivek Makh on cue to take the wining frame. All in all a good team performance. Well done Lads!!!

After the defeat to the 'A' side in the first fixture of the year the boys second match of the season came against a vey solid Northants line up.
The lads started well with Steve Emms and Mathew Peel putting us 2 - 1 up. But Northants hit back taking 7 of the next 8 frames with only James Willis on cue for the Bears. So even with the score line 8 - 3 to Northants after the first section we knew if the lads could settle down and take their chances we were still in with a shout. 
The second section started well with Mathew Peel & James Willis winning again, Northants hit back but wins from M.Meaney, Josh Griffiths, T.Woolman, D. Earles & Steve Martin saw us take the section 7 - 4, to make it 12 - 10 to Northants at Half - Time.
We finally went down 27 - 17. But it was a great fighting display from all the lads... Well Done to all..

Man Of the Match:-- James Willis (Pictured above) 4 out of 4..

The third section saw Warwicks struggle with only M. Meeney, J Willis & R. Stone taking their. This put us 20 - 13 down doing in to the last section. It now meant we needed to take 10 of the last 11 frame to win the match. The lads met the challenge full on, playing their hearts out trying to overcome the deficit. But even though we were firing on all cylinders and managed to take 4 of the first 5 frames before Northants nicked the frame they needed to secure the match.
