Sutton A have been crowned Didcot & District Table Tennis League Division 1 champions.

They captured the crown after the challenge of title-holders Sutton B petered out as they fielded depleted teams for their last two matches.

An Ian Packford maximum and a doubles win with James Lovelock earned Sutton B a 5-5 draw at Abingdon A.

But struggling Letcombe A then beat Sutton B 7-3, with Richard Taylor winning three and Steve Smith and Mike Haddrell weighing in with two apiece.

Letcombe B are relegated from Division 2 following their 6-4 defeat by Drayton C, who fielded only the father-and-son combination Ray and Tim Massie.

Ray recorded a maximum and they also won the doubles.

Moreton A are Division 3 champions.

They lost 6-4 at home to Drayton E, for whom Michael Street won three singles and combined with Paul Randle to take the decisive doubles 11-8 in the fifth.

But they bounced back to beat and relegate Letcombe C, with Ian Royle and substitute Richard Smith winning two apiece in the 7-3 result.
