The final round of the Spitfire League yesterday saw RBC run out 10-0 winners in Section A against Caterham cementing our top position. With a comfortable win on one rink, the other two rinks were quite close for a while but on these RBC managed to secure good wins.

Well done to all the RBC players who enabled us to remain unbeaten over the 6 matches with an average score of 8.5 out of 10.

In Section B the leaders Banstead Neville scored an impressive 10-0 win against second place Epsom. This enabled Purley Bury to leap-frog Epsom to secure a place in the finals. RBC will play them in the semi-finals. The other semi-final will be Banstead Neville v Caterham.
