WR Sports A remain the only unbeaten side across both divisions but sit nine points behind Three Tuns, who are currently showing dominant form. Egham & Hythe Whites started brightly, with Dan Emmett producing a superb reverse dish against Ethan Coates in the opening frame. Bailey Hyman followed up with a solid win over Rob Malik to give the home side an early 2–0 lead.

However, momentum soon swung when captain Ben Reading steadied the ship, sparking a WR Sports comeback that saw them turn the match around to lead 4 – 2.

Young Freddie Morrison, coming into the match fresh from a Snooker Handicap win Jimmy Whites Club at the weekend, was in fine form. He claimed an excellent win over Ben Reading in frame seven and repeated the feat in frame twelve — the only two frames Egham & Hythe managed after their strong start.

A composed and determined response from WR Sports saw them close out the match 8–4 and secure another important victory. If they are to retain last season’s title, they’ll be hoping Three Tuns start dropping points sooner rather than later.

The team to beat, and on paper this should have been a much closer contest than the scoreline suggests — a real reflection of the form Three Tuns have found themselves in recently. One player who deserves special mention is Rob Mutter, who was in outstanding form, producing two break dishes in three frames. The first came against Scott Kelly, with the second arriving in frame ten against Vinny Mitchell.

A dominant display from Three Tuns saw them race into a 5–1 lead early on, with Jason Willerby claiming the sole frame for NRS. The second half followed a very similar pattern, with George Smith leading the charge. No frames were dropped after the interval, as Three Tuns cruised to another emphatic 11–1 victory, securing back-to-back 11-1 wins in the League.

SS&NR came into the second half of the League buoyed by some positive Cup form, but it wasn’t to be their night as they slipped to a home defeat against a strong Staines Cons D side.

An early 3–1 lead saw SS&NR make a promising start, but the momentum soon shifted as the match turned into a tale of two halves. Staines Cons D went on to win seven of the final eight frames, with Paul Fisher the only player able to respond, beating new Staines signing Dale Moore-Saxton.

A solid win for Staines Cons D sees them move up to fourth place in Division 1, while SS&NR remain in the relegation zone with work to do, sitting 11 points behind NRS in sixth.

The Egham & Hythe Ladies, who joined the Cup action earlier in the season, got their League campaign underway with a tough fixture against a side charging up the table and looking to close the gap on the top two.

Sunbury Con A showed their early intent, racing into a 5–1 lead, with the only response coming from Maria Griffiths‑Pressman, who picked up a fine win against Shaun Meehan. Marsha Rogers then offered a glimmer of hope for the Ladies with a strong victory over Ben Pryce.

Any thoughts of a comeback were quickly halted in frame nine, as Ross Lindie produced a superb reverse dish against Clare McCarthy, who was making her League debut — a tough introduction on her first frame of the night.

The Ladies did manage to claim another frame, with Captain Amber Pressman stepping up to defeat Shaun Meehan, handing him his second loss of the night. Nevertheless, Sunbury Con A maintained control throughout and secured a deserved 9–3 victory.

Another side who used the Cup as a platform to find some strong form were Eddies, who continued that momentum with an away win at Jolly Butcher. Leo Cooper got Jolly off to the perfect start with an opening-frame victory over Chris Atwell. Leo Cooper has been the standout performer in Division 2 so far, topping the player stats with an impressive 13 wins from 15 matches.

Eddies weren’t fazed by the early setback, responding well to take four of the opening six frames and establish a 4–2 lead.

Jolly Butcher, led by the Cooper family, fought back as Jason Cooper and Leo Cooper levelled the match at 4–4. However, Jon Martin and Gerry Hurley shut the door on any comeback hopes, restoring Eddies’ advantage and seeing them over the line to gaurentee a minimum of a draw.

After this, Jolly Butcher remain near the foot of the table and are still searching for wins, though performances are improving, while Eddies continue to hold steady in mid-table.

Staines Cons New, who have moved into their new home at Staines Con Club from The Freemans Arms in some force, continue to find winning ways as they push hard for a return to the top division under Captain, Leader, and 12‑nil Legend Grant Baker. A flying start saw Staines race into a commanding 5–0 lead, with the only response from London Stone coming in frame six, where Andy Henson overcame Steve Kent.

Any hopes of a comeback were quickly shut down as Ricardo Cunha claimed the opening frame of the second half to extend the lead to 6–1. Chris Butler and Chris Docwra did manage to pick up a pair of consolation frames for London Stone, but it wasn’t enough to halt the momentum.

Staines Cons New closed the match out in style, winning the final three frames through Perry Baker, Grant Baker, and Steve Kent to seal a convincing 9–3 victory.

The win, combined with WR All Stars’ defeat to Egham & Hythe Youth, sees the gap at the top of the table reduced to just one point.
