St Andrew's Mens A team beat Clevedon Promenade B in North Division One of the Somerset County League for a much needed win.

St Andrew’s A finished with 56(9pts), besting Clevedon Prom B's 52(3pts).

A masterstroke by veteran Gordon Wride on the final end secured the win.

The women's team of St Andrews, however, continued their winning streak, gaining a 14-point advantage against Victoria Blue.
