NGL Intermediate League
Kettering made a brilliant start to their Intermediate campaign with a 6½-1½ victory over Overstone Park at Collingtree Park.
The experienced trio of Jim Campbell (8&6), Tony Ferns (7&6) and Marcel Aarts (5&3) laid the foundations, before further points from Joe Walton, Stuart Bell and Mark Hastie, plus a half from Luke Saywood, sealed the win.
The other fixture ended with honours even as Wellingborough battled back to secure a 4-4 draw against Kingsthorpe.
Mike Gilbrook and Andrew Grimmitt were successful for Wellingborough early on, but Kingsthorpe took games two, four, five and six, before Tim Veal and Gary Grimmitt levelled the score by grabbing the final two ties.
