Skittles: Captain Bob wins it for ODS

THERE were some exciting finishes in Division One of the Yeovil Sports Skittles League.

ODS held on to their three-point lead at the top with a Bob Lee last ball win away to FK Rebels. He needed four with his last ball and got them with a perfect shot.

Hammers had a 52-pin win over Waverley Bros and Alex Baker had the week’s top score with a fine 65 for Yellow Wagtail B who won away to Easy Boys by 21.

Croc’s Lot and Ooo Unlucky stayed in the promotion spots in Division Two, but Nightriders suffered a setback with a six-pin home defeat by Rejects thanks to S. Shead who led the way with 55. Combo stayed in touch with a 69-pin win over Has Beens.

Top met bottom in Division Three and Huish Sports sank to a 38-pin home defeat by leaders Incredibles.

Casuals had to fight all the way to get their eight-pin win over Debaggers. In this division Jets have withdrawn and the points will be awarded to all teams who would have played them – a move agreed by the captains at the last league meeting.

In Division Four, RML Sports shocked leaders Old Barn Club thanks to C. Nunn who hit 62 in their 15-pin victory.

RB Legion Sports had a close game with Dad’s Army and finished with a two-pin win and Wessex Plus had a 31-pin away win over Nondescripts to stay second and third respectively.

Misfits still lead the way in Division Five after a comfortable win over Somerset Sports, but Flung Together suffered a one-pin defeat away to Nomads.

Marston Boys moved up to a challenging position with an 11-pin win over Labour Club thanks to 107 pins from P. Swaine and R. Swaine.
