ROSE Hill Community Centre preserved their five-point lead in Section 1, but they were pushed all the way at home to Kidlington Green Social Club B.

Geordie Grant, Ray Pape and Simon Tricker put the hosts in charge, before the Green club hit back to level.

But a 2-1 success in the pairs sealed a 5-4 victory for Rose Hill.

Nearest challengers Marlborough Club triumphed by the same scoreline at home to third-placed Peachcroft Social Club. Florence Park Community Centre A, top of the ladies’ Premier Section, crushed Section 1 leaders Donnington Community Centre A.

Ann Marks put hosts Donnington in front, but Florence Park hit back to win 8-1.

There was a big shock in Section 2, where rock bottom Jolly Post Boys won 6-3 at home to leaders Vikings Social Club A.
