Mick Rockett started the new season with a six in the first leg for the General Elliott, but could not save his team from a 3-0 defeat against George A as the Morrells Oxford League got under way after the winter break.

Kevin Giles hit 14 dolls for the winners.

Kevin Baker also scored 14 for Cricketers B in their 3-0 defeat of Garsington Sports, well supported by Ivor Clarke with 13.

Eddie Edwards was another six-hitter for the Flying Machine in their 2-1 win over Kidlington Green SC.

Quarry Gate could field only five players in their opening Section 8 game, but still managed to take a leg from the Watermans.

*Any team not fulfilling two consecutive fixtures face the possibility of being expelled from the league.
