Warwickshire played their third premier division fixture in the BDO Inter County Championships and followed up their previous 22-14 win over neighbouring West Midlands with another 22-14 win away to Cheshire.

The ladies had mixed fortunes as the ‘B’ team lost 4-2 with Chloe McKivett (18.94) the lady of the match, Chloe coming from 2-0 down to win 3-2 against Andrea Hunt, the only other winner was Melanie Jones who had a 120 game shot in her 3-2 win over Beverley Martin. The ‘A’ side are fast becoming the division’s draw specialists as they made it three 3-3 draws in as many games. Taking the ‘A’ award was Natalie Gilbert with her 21.13 average and 3-1 win over Jane Stubbs.

Once again the men’s teams were in terrific form as both teams emulated the scores they recorded in their previous game, the ‘B’ team winning 9-3 with James Hykin (29.21) their top player and the ‘A’ with Charlie Symons, Jamie Hughes, Ian McFarlane and Kevin Dowling all recording 30 plus averages won 8-4, Dowling having the highest average of 31.97 to take the man of the match award.
