Match Summary

Barnsley B travelled to Phoenix C with a weakened side without some of their better players.

Three black wins on all the even boards by Ron Atkinson, Francesca Fozard (who had just recovered from flu) and Tony Leon secured the team their first win of the season.

They were ably assisted by Tony Farrell on top board drawing with Carl Walker, a former first division top board player for Phoenix and Paul Lee-Kime on board five who agreed a draw having had the better game.

Phoenix closed the match score to 4-2 when white lost his game on board three after losing material.
