Weekending 20 September 2019
A CLOSE FINISH IS ASSURED IN Division 2 of the Cleveland & District Table Tennis League as two of the top 3 teams, Beaumont B and Westfield B, have to play in the final fixture of the season.
In last week’s matches, Nunthorpe B retained their position at the top of the table with two 10-0 victories at the expense of Ormesby Wheelers and Ormesby E. Barbara Kearney and Robert Evans scored a hat trick in both matches whilst John Hanson joined the players with 3 wins against the Wheelers and David Hildreth against Ormesby E. These 20 points keep Nunthorpe B at the top of the table with 146 points, having completed their fixtures.
Beaumont B had 2 victories last week 10-0 against Ormesby E with hat tricks from Geoff Howe, Jane Lynas and Bruce Lowther but then, they visited Ormesby D when 3 points were dropped as Beaumont won by 7 sets to 3 despite a hat trick from Howe. Tom Hand did most of the damage with 2 wins against John Lynas and Barry Pearson whilst John McCullow beat Jane Lynas in 5 games. Tom Hand’s victory against Barry Pearson also went to 5.
Westbourne B kept their interest in the Championship with a 10-0 win against Ormesby Hopes but dropped 2 points when visiting Ormesby E, winning by only 8 sets to 2. Against the Ormesby E team. Lee Kelly, Mike Purdy and Roy Horseman all scored hat tricks against the Hopes. Pearson scored a hat trick with David Hutchinson and Jason Lloyd scored 2 each whilst Dave Reeve scored 2 for Ormesby E.
In the final match, Beaumont Accoutancy Nomads B need to win against Westbourne B by 6-4 to clinch the title. A 5 all draw would take them to level points with Nunthorpe B and a countback would need to be calculated to decide the winner. Westbourne B would need to win 10-0 to take the title. 9-1 would result in a countback with Nunthorpe.
Weekending 13 September 2019
Ormesby A moved a step closer to retaining the Division 1 Championship of the Cleveland and District Summer Table Tennis League when they defeated the club’s B team by 7 sets to 3 in last week’s fixtures.

NICE TO SEE YOU DAVE
Dave Ashwell picture above on the left and Dave Hutchinson on the right met up recently at a match at the Ormesby club after not seeing each other for almost 30 years.
Although Dave Hutchinson has continued to play and is currently playing for Hartlepool Westbourne, Dave Ashwell had not played for many years until he brought his two young children Michael and Katie along to the Saturday morning junior sessions at Ormesby. Now playing for Ormesby D, Dave A has soon regained some of his former skills and is really enjoying his return to table tennis.
