Two matches on Sunday in the morning the Mixed Top Club team travelled to High Wycombe to take on Handy Cross and in the afternoon the Friendly Team played host to our friends from Parkside.
It was an early start for the Mixed Top Club team and Claire Flannigan got Chawton off to the perfect start winning the Women’s two wood singles 21-11 and in the process earning the opening two points. By the time the Men’s two wood singles got underway the pairs and triples both had sizeable leads with only the Fours down.
The Men’s two wood singles saw Dave Thurgood in a titanic tussle with the lead changing hands on multiple occasions with Dave finally sealing the win 21-19 and another two points. With the triple of Kate and Mark Fyfield alongside Gary Starks building on their lead to win 27-13 and the pair of Tina Chambers and Reece Graham winning 27-20 to secure the match.
When Handy Cross conceded the tie only the Four represented by Lesley Johnson, Margaret Holden, James Shillingford and Ashley Nethercliffe were behind with Chawton Park winning overall by 12 points to 4 and a shot differential of 103-81.
Chawton Park will host the winners of the delayed Isle of Wight Community Club v Palmerston tie in the next round on Sunday 6th December.
The afternoon friendly against Parkside was a six mixed triple format and followed a recent theme of late with Chawton Park off to their traditional slow start and it was not until the 11th end that the Home side took the lead and from there was no looking back with a strong finish to win 121-78.
Chawton won four rinks lost one and drew one. Top rink of the day was Sue Barrett, Len Holton and Ian Webster 24-7 winners.
