Didcot Power Station B must be sick of the sight of Sutton after slipping to defeats to both of their sides in Division 1 of the Didcot & District League.

Ian Packford and Rob Hansell returned maximums in Sutton B's 8-2 victory over DPS B, while Karl Bushell and Ray Powell hit maximums in Sutton A's 9-1 win.

Another Rob Hansell maximum for Sutton B in their 7-3 victory at Abingdon B effectively ended any hopes Abingdon still had for honours this season.

Division 2 leaders Abingdon C were inspired by a maximum from Brian Freeman, who also won the decisive doubles with Ricki Whiteaway, in the 6-4 victory over fellow high-fliers DPS D. Power Station drop from second to fourth.

Sutton C, with maximums for Peter Wiblin and Bill Hanks, moved into second with a 9-1 victory against bottom team Letcombe B.

Paul Cheong bagged a maximum, but Division 3 leaders Moreton A lost their unbeaten record to Abingdon E, who move into second place.

Ronnie Brass and Robert Cowan won the doubles 14-12 in the fifth to secure a 6-4 victory.

Moreton C retained their slim lead in Division 4 by winning 7-3 at RAL E, with Joe Cheong and Roger Haycock unbeaten on the night.
