TENNIS: Wythall A maintained their unbeaten start to the Stratford Winter League campaign, edging out Studley B 3-1 in their Division Two clash.
But they were given an early scare with Dave Taylor and Jake Smith losing their match 7-5, 6-2 against visiting pair Clive Dalton and Sam Allen. The 14-year-old Allen continually drove the Wythall pair wide allowing Dalton to dominate at the net.
The home team hit back when the second pair of Kevin Turner and Pete Thomas took their match 6-4, 6-3.
The reverse rubbers were equally tense but Taylor and Smith won their match 6-4, 6-3 before Turner and Thomas secured the win in a thrilling three set contest coming through 7-4, 1-6, 6-2.
