Very little change in the Wolverhampton Tuesday Night League after completing game twenty-six, in the singles league Junction ‘B’ continue to dominate with a commanding 7-0 home win over Junction ‘D’ to keep them top of the table with fifty points and a lead of four over second placed Hotshots who also won 7-0 at Junction ‘A’.
Junction ‘B’ also top the doubles league with forty-eight points but only on average as once again Hotshots are second level on points but trailing by six legs of average after Junction ‘B’ won 2-1 against Junction ‘B’ and Hotshots beat Junction ‘A’ 3-0.
