Horsham Hotshots short mat welcomed three triple teams up from Henfield for a friendly game on Sunday.

With the increasing concerns about Covid-19 (coronavirus), this turned out to be the last match for the winter short mat season, the remaining games being sensibly called off.

Captain of the day and skip on mat one Dave Stearn led his team of Dave Packham and Dulce Pearson to a super win of 40-13. On tricky mat 2, Malcom Curtis skipped Norman Stone and Jules Packham to a score of 15-11.

Mat 3 also proved a winner, with Pat Sullivan, Chris Hilton-Childs and skip Mike Pearson taking the honours with a tally of 22-17.

A total of 77-41, but that mattered little when everyone was happy just to compete, before we head into the summer, uncertain about what the future holds. Keep well, keep safe.
