KIRBY'S ladies’ A team continued their winning streak with a 7-2 victory at Dedham.

The Colchester and District League match took place on a wet and drizzly evening and the conditions were slippery underfoot at times.

Anne Cosby and Emily Watford fought many long rallies to win all three of their matches.

Millie McIllraith paired up with Bonnie Howe and together they also secured all three matches, winning one on a close tie-break.

Although both slightly impaired by injury, Anne Goldsmith and Sarah Minter won their second match 8-2.

However, despite battling hard with some good base-line play, they were unlucky in their other matches.
