Coverage: 19–25 October 2026Published
Two 6–4 results gave Division Two a particularly neat symmetry. Both winning sides had an unbeaten singles player and both won the doubles. The route to those identical totals was anything but identical.
Player of the Week
Madu Ezedinma
Daventry Bees
Three singles and a doubles win in a 6–4 victory, including recovery from two games down against Ali Foote. His four contributions and that five-game escape give him the editorial nod in a week that also brought Bartosz Romanek an unbeaten singles return.

Rothersthorpe A edged Bugbrooke B 6–4 behind Bartosz Romanek's three singles. He dropped just one game, while Krzysztof Blaszczyk added two wins, including an 11–9 fifth against Ryan Webb after Webb had recovered from two games down.
Nigel Corbett won twice for Bugbrooke; Webb and Alan Baker added one each. Baker needed an 11–9 deciding game against Bernard Cassidy. The doubles was another five-game affair: Blaszczyk and Romanek trailed Corbett and Webb 1–2 before winning the final games 11–1 and 11–5. Five singles plus that doubles gave Rothersthorpe their winning six.
Official TT Leagues scorecardDaventry BeesTowcester E
Madu Ezedinma's three singles carried Daventry Bees towards a 6–4 victory over Towcester E, and his recovery against Ali Foote supplied its sharpest story. After losing the first two games 6–11 and 7–11, Ezedinma won the next three 11–4, 11–9 and 11–5.
Steve Fuller added two singles, including a 17–15 third game against Foote. Frank Whiteley beat Fuller 13–11 in the fifth and won twice for E, with Mark Thomas and Foote adding one apiece. Ezedinma and Fuller won the doubles in straight games. Ezedinma therefore contributed to four of Daventry's six rubbers, with his comeback particularly important to the margin.
Official TT Leagues scorecardEzedinma's recovery and Rothersthorpe's doubles win each changed a finely balanced card. Neither six arrived with enough spare rubbers to dismiss the longer contests as incidental.
