Three teams played this rearranged away fixture. All the Hainault players found their green heavy and never really got to grips with it. A poor excuse as the Barley players coped well.
On rink 1 Alan Bayliss, Ash Sen & Bernie Grosber trailed throughout the match and eventually lost 8 - 22.
On rink 2 Alan Potts, John King & Steve Riches didn't play their best and like the Hainault team on rink 1 trailed throughout the match running out losers 10 - 15.
On rink 3 Andy Higgins, George Savvas & Michael Lee put up a better fight and were leading by 1 point by the thirteenth end. However, from then on Barley won the remaining five ends comfortably to take the match 10 - 18.
