TABLE TENNIS: Pierre-Olivier Colard, for RAL B, recorded a stunning victory over Karl Bushell, but it could not prevent RAL A from winning 6-4 and being crowned Didcot & District League Division 1 champions, writes Owen Brazell.

Sam Ricks’s maximum for Marlborough C in the 8-2 win over their A team kept up their challenge for runners-up spot.

In Division 2, Moreton C’s 7-3 victory against Sutton A condemned their opponents to relegation.

Wallingford B’s whitewash of Drayton F makes them favourites for the Division 3 title.

With Sandford A already crowned Division 4 champions the race is on for the other promotion spot.

Grove B’s 5-5 draw with Marlborough F, thanks to Paul Ludlam’s maximum, gives them the edge.
