NGL Hollingsworth Trophy – Group D
Defending champions Wellingborough remain top of the Group D table despite losing by a single point away to Kingsthorpe.
With all of the five ties reaching the 17th hole at least, the hosts sealed the points by taking the first match 2&1, and then the next two games down the last.
In a tight group when points difference could prove crucial in securing a place in the semi-finals, Wellingborough’s Mark Davis and Duncan Felce (2&1) won game four, before Jon Harris and Dominic Holden took the final point on the 18th hole.
A 6&5 win for Ben Hawkins and Lewis White set the tone for Northampton in their home contest with Whittlebury Park as they enjoyed a 4-1 success.
Dean Roberts and Ian Townsend (4&3), Christopher Kay and Oliver Nightingale (2&1) and Samuel Gilkes and Andy Limbert (5&4) also collected points for Northampton, whose only loss came in the fourth tie.
