But Martin Breakspeare and Les Radford made it 4-2 and despite losing the pairs 2-1, College Oak hung on for a 5-4 victory.

Original Swan A got their season off to a winning start with a 6-3 success at White Horse.

Tim Tricker, Peter Rouse and Jon Jukes put Swan 3-0 ahead, and although the home side hit back through Kit Young and John Fowler (180), Nick Cobb made it 4-2 before a 2-1 pairs triumph secured them victory.
