PRESS REPORT – Sunday 16th Dec

 

Torbay Academy 1, catching up with their fixtures, have now hit their rightful place at the top of the First Division. The Academy showed their credentials in a double header with NA Condors, dropping just the one point in 20, with maximums for Kris Piwowar, Jakub Piwowar, Patrik Cincala, Lenard Hernandez and Warren Ngai.  Tussling for the runners-up spot, NA Buzzards, with a fine maximum from Kevin Nicholls, defeated Brixham Sharks 7-3, whilst NA Batmen Mike Kiff, Dennis and Shaun Gibbs, had a whitewash win at Brixham over the Gulls.

It is very tight at the top of the Second Division, as NA Eagles hang on by a single point. Torbay Academy 2, with Warren Ngai and Esme Suarez unbeaten, defeated Denbury Tykes 9-1 closing the gap as NA Eagles dropped points although defeating Brixham Trawlers 7-3. Ed Crawford took a maximum for the Eagles.  A Nicholas Shipley maximum kept Brixham Pirates in the hunt as they defeated Marldon 7-3.
  

Division 3 is even closer than the 2nd Division as just 2 points separate the top three. The top two, level on points before they played each other, remain level on points as Torbay Academy 3 and Marldon Tykes played out a 5-5 draw, with Steve Tyler getting a maximum for the Tykes. NA Hawks closed the gap in third place, as Ben Swettenham and David Doxsey maximums helped them to a 9-1 win at Torbay Academy 4. Jamie McGuire and Liam Wall were unbeaten as Torbay Academy 5 beat Brixham Dolphins 7-3.  Dawlish Diamonds, back up to full strength, defeated NA Kestrels 9-1, and Bruce Freeman and Jim Saunders took maximums for the Diamonds.
