The B Team’s League campaign came to a rather disappointing end on Wednesday night after a 2-2 at Woodbridge. Sax started with a free point due to a default on board 4, and after Mike won on top board we were looking good. However, as the evening wore on the tide turned against both Dominic and Matthew, and they both went down fighting. Although the result moved Sax B to the top of the table, we still had to wait and see if either of the two Bury teams could overtake us…..

In the event, Bury C lost 3-1 to Bury D the following night, so Bury C fell a point short. Bury D could now overtake us with a 4-0 win in their last game, but they to fell short, drawing 2-2 with Felixstowe.

So Sax B win the Division 3 title, and promotion to Division 2, to match the A Team winning the Division 2 title and promotion to the top flight. Congratulations to all involved.
