Coverage: 12–18 October 2026Published
Gayton C's card was striking for its economy. Daventry Dees' was anything but: their win at Towcester included a comeback, three five-game contests and three conceded singles that must be read separately from the played results.
Player of the Week
Matthew Frampton
Daventry Dees
Frampton won both played singles against Towcester F, beating Andy Phillips 3–1 and recovering from 1–2 to defeat Satish Sirur 11–9 in the fifth. Sirur won his other two singles and the doubles. The official 7–3 includes three conceded rubbers; Frampton supplied two of Daventry's four played wins and received one awarded rubber, not a third played victory.

Gayton C's 9–1 victory over Daventry Extras featured immaculate three-win returns from Clive Hudson and Jim Brogan: neither dropped a game in singles. Veronica Downing supplied two singles, and Hudson and Brogan took the doubles in straight games.
Sebastian Parks earned the Extras' result by beating Downing 3–1. There were no five-game contests on this card, and Gayton won all nine of their successful rubbers in straight games. It was a conspicuously direct route to nine, interrupted by Parks' important refusal to let the result become ten.
Official TT Leagues scorecardTowcester FDaventry Dees
Daventry Dees won 7–3 at a Towcester F side with only two players. Three conceded singles belong in the recorded total, but must not be confused with played wins. Matthew Frampton won both his contested singles as well as receiving one of those awards.
Frampton needed five against Satish Sirur, who won his other two singles and joined Andy Phillips for a straight-games doubles win. Bob Read came from two games down against Phillips, surviving a 12–10 third before winning the fifth 11–3. Natalia Read also beat Phillips in five. The conceded rubbers shaped the score; the played contests still supplied three deciders and a genuine comeback.
Official TT Leagues scorecardThe two victories followed very different paths. Gayton's winning rubbers were all straight-game affairs; the Dees repeatedly had to settle matters in a fifth.
