Just like Joe Cocker sung ‘Up Where We Belong’, Team 1 Locke have the top spot back thanks to a good win over Team 5 Riley with wins for Anthony Rosewarne, George Eleftheriou, Charlie Locke, Craig Hausler and a fiery Robyn Chapman while the Kinross kangaroo Tom Riley jumped all over the court to upset Ian Middleton in straight games.

Team 6 Goes whitewashed Team 3 Kirk with wins for Albert Cavalli, Steve Blackwood, Lisa Doherty, Mark Goes and Darren Wooding while Molong’s greatest award winner ever Belinda Thurtell just fell short against her nemesis Nathan Garton going down in a five game classic.
