Richard Yeomans was in sparkling form when playing for the Newsboys against Droitwich RBL on Sketchleys Club in the Division Three of the Worcester and District Skittle League.

He had the perfect score of five nines, with only one other team-mate managing to score nine all night.

Newsboys were always in control of the game leaving Droitwich 84 to win, but they could only score 78 to give Newsboys their first win in four weeks by five pins.

In Division Two CEDS are fast becoming the draw experts with their second draw of the season, away to All Blacks.

The Coronation Cup match against the Friendly League will be played on Saturday, November 23 at the Railway Club.
