Saxmundham advanced to the final of the Division 3 Rapidplay Cup last night with a close 4.5 – 3.5 win over Bury C at Benhall. A tough match only went our way due to a default from the visitors.
Matthew and Lee both won one game and lost one, and Mike lost the first game by blundering a piece, and had to settle for a draw in the second when his young opponent defended well to keep him at bay. This meant that it was the two points from the default that saw us through.
