This week the Leicester 1st team defeated Hinckley 1 to claim their fourth win out of six matches.  Mark Christison won comfortably at number 4 and Steve Ward beat Andy Beel 3-1 despite Beel's excellent court coverage.  Simon Turner stepping in at number five went down 3-0 to O45 county finalist Dave Wood and Martin Geear lost in straight sets to the double handed Dan O'Hara.  Jack Turney secured victory for Harborough with an excellent 3-1 win over Heath Jennings.

The previous week the team travelled to play Cleaver who are currently bottom of the league.  Most of Cleaver's top players are this year playing in the Midlands league leaving their Leicester side weak as yet without a win.  Unfortunately, they broke their losing streak against Harborough following losses by Geear, Christison (his first loss of the season) & Loomes.  Christison narrowly lost 3-2 & Loomes went down to the young Jordi Coppock 3-1, 14-12 in the fourth.

The team are currently mid-table with a game in hand.  The last three matches of this half are all tough and the team will need some good performances to maintain their position in the league.
