OXFORDSHIRE’S Katherine Hawes and Carole Galletly have been named in the England team for next year’s Women’s Senior International Series at Royal Leamington Spa.

Hawes, from Oxford City & County, was expected to be Oxon’s sole representative in the side.

Galletly, who plays for Banbury Central, was initially named as a travelling reserve.

But she received a recall to the side for the competition which takes place from June 14-16, 2015.

  • OXFORDSHIRE’S men rounded off their friendly season with a convincing victory over Essex at Wanstead BC.

A superb display saw the visitors record a third clean sweep of the season in a 160-88 triumph.

But their hat-trick was not secured until the final end, when Ian Whelpton’s rink picked up three shots to win by one and complete the task.

David Wedge’s four starred, winning 39-5, with Chris Weller’s rink also on-song with a 34-15 success.

It was Oxon’s first away whitewash of the season and also their highest shot score.

To complete the celebrations a 100-game badge was presented to 2010 president Tony Backer-Holst.

Essex 88, Oxfordshire 160 (Oxon rink scores): P Demczak, P Brittin, B Bloomfield & D Wedge won 39-5; B Willoughby, C Lewis, H Franklin & A Ley won 22-19; M Oliver, R Havard, M Jones & M Andrew won 26-18; T Backer-Holst, J Stephens, J Timms & C Weller won 34-15; S Tolhurst, J McGeough, A Hall & J O’Shea won 22-15; V Webb, E Dorling, T Gripe & I Whelpton won 17-16.
