THURSDAY NIGHT
Thursday evening was well attended also and as the rain pelted down outside some epic matches ensued not the least of which was Mark Webb's fifth set defeat 15-11 of 'deception master' Pete Cowhan, earlier Lockie Miller and Jay Kross had their usual marathon match with Lockie winning this one set five 15-11 also.
