Prince of Wales vs The Sidings
Review
…
PREVIEW
There are a few player changes on both sides, which could make this an interesting match. The Prince, champions for the last two seasons, will be looking to get off to a better start than last season. They lost the opening game, their first league game in a year. The Sidings will be looking to better last year’s results, especially after they are a team that can pose a threat to any on their day.

Studio Bar vs Prince of Wales B
REVIEW
The Studio, which was likely everyone’s favourite before the match began, faced a formidable challenge from the Prince B side. The Prince B team emerged victorious in the first frame, setting the stage for an intense battle. The Studio rallied and secured the next three frames, taking a commanding 3-1 lead. However, Prince B fought back, winning the next two frames to tie the score at 3-3. The match concluded with a thrilling finish, as the Studio won the final two frames to secure a 5-3 victory. Captain Chris’s crucial win in the final frame sealed the points for the Studio. It’s fantastic to witness Phil Dodd’s return to the league, and it’s equally impressive to see Prince B giving it their all. I’m certain they’re pleased with the outcome, as it was an evenly contested match.
PREVIEW
This is an interesting match. The Studio has a new captain, Chris, and a couple of quality new players. Prince ‘B’ is a mix of the old Friendship and Cotton Tree teams. The Studio’s talent means they will be clear favourites, but as we have seen repeatedly in this league, no team can be discounted, and looking at Prince ‘B’s team, they will be capable of anything.

Waggon & Horses vs Gorton Con Club
REVIEW

Preview
The Waggon are a great team; they always play in the right spirit and have a good time, but don’t underestimate them, they have proven to be giant killers in the past. They have added some new players, too, so they will be looking to cause an early-season surprise. The GCC are an incredibly talented team, winning the main Team KO and last year’s teams doubles league. Will they equal last year’s results, or will the Waggon get their upset?
