Just a quick summary of this weekends action. More detail will be included in the end of the month newsletter. Derbyshire 1st beat Yorkshire 3rd 11-4 on Sunday at David Lloyd – taking all three points and remaining top of division 1A. Man of the match went to Donna Kellogg for a very confident performance in front of her home fans.

There position at the top was then boosted by the knowledge that Northumberland lost 11-4 to Lothian. This now puts Derbyshire in a commanding position to win the league and reach the Premier B play offs! One more win in the match Vs Yorkshire this coming Saturday will be enough.

Derbyshire 2nd team beat Staffs 9-6 last weekend and also look favourites to earn promotion from division 3B this season. Well done guys. Another point from your remaining two matches should do it!!! Next matches are (Derbyshire Vs Leicestershire Away on 27/3/11 & Derbyshire Vs Nottinghamshire at Rolls Royce on 3/4/11 @ 12:00)

Derbyshire 3rd ended their season this weekend with mixed fortunes. A strong Isle of Man team travelled to Derbyshire to play on both Saturday and Sunday. The 3rds won a close battle on Saturday 8-7 (trailing 7-5 going in to the mixed) to earn 2 points. IOM recruited their top lady for the Sunday match which in turn boosted their squad and helped them to an impressive 11-4 victory.

Paul Todds team still sit top of Div 4A but will have to rely on the results of others if they are to be promoted. An excellent season of performances from the 3rds in their first year in division 4. Some promising debuts from our top juniors will only add to their chances of promotion next year. We will keep our fingers crossed for IOM and Durham to slip up before the end of the season!!

Derbyshire +45 team were also in action again this weekend beating Warwickshire 9-3. Inspiring performances from John Eccles, Simon Basset, Kev Marriott, Brian Wheatley, Sue Gerratt, Debbie Trow, Christine Reed & Bridget keep their team in top position in the region.
