A SINGLES whitewash saw Cricketers Arms stun Kidlington Green Social Club in the ladies’ Premier Section of the Cowley Workers ODDA League.

Lyn Bayliss, Charlie Dodson, Emily Baldwin, Lorraine Singleton, Emma Elliott and Debbie Stevens all won.

The leaders salvaged something by winning the pairs matches, but still lost 6-3.

Cowley Workers A maintained their unbeaten record in men’s Section 2 with a 6-3 success against visitors Catherine Wheel.

Skipper Phil Cook got the hosts off to a strong start, despite two 180s from Sean Ashburner.

Butch Bowers and Otis Williams struck for Catherine Wheel, but the Workers seized the initiative with Michael Slatter and Darren Allen to finish the singles 4-2 ahead.

A 2-1 pairs victory kept the runaway leaders on track with a tenth successive triumph.

Cricketers Arms B remain rooted to the bottom following a 6-3 defeat to Red Lion Kidlington.

The strugglers took an early lead as John Kearney and Karl Smith came out on top.

But the Lions hit back through Neal Lowe, Mark Aust, George Baker and Tony Wheeler.

And a 2-1 pairs success sealed a comfortable victory.

WE are sorry to report that Joan Baxendale, who helped husband Jim compile the ODDA reports for decades, died on Saturday.

Funeral details to follow.
