Headington recorded the week’s only century to romp home 6-0 at Banbury Chestnuts and go top of Division 1 in the Oxford & District League, sponsored by Yarnton Nurseries.

With leaders Carterton having a week off, Headington took full advantage to triumph 115-53.

Ian Snowdon’s four won 35-12 and Howard Watts’s side cruised to a 33-11 success to set up the big win.

Oxford City & County A suffered their first defeat with a 4-2 loss at Banbury Central A.

John Tee’s rink, and the young guns, this week skipped by George Schwab in Will Campion’s absence, gave Central their victory.
