Double triumph in knockout contests
Congratulations to Basil's team who have won through to the second round of the Edward Rowland Cup after beating Hove & Kingsway in monsoon-like conditions.
Neville, Mark Gooch, Bill and Mark Howell won 13-4 in a match reduced to 12 ends because of the weather.
For the second season in a row, they will visit Southwick Park in the second round.
We are also through to the second round of the Tom Francis competition after our scheduled opponents, Felbridge, failed to raise a side. It's not the way we wanted to go through, but we are now awaiting the decision of the Mid Sussex League regarding our second-round tie against either Newick or Hurstpierpoint.
The scheduled date - June 28 - is the day of our Carrow Cup competition, and we have written to the competition organiser, requesting permission to offer our opponents alternative dates.

Not quite a washout
Congratulations and thanks to the hardy souls from the club who hosted our second open day of the season in wet and windy conditions on Saturday.
And perhaps even bigger congratulations to those brave people who still turned up, despite the dire weather forecast.
Around half a dozen visitors enjoyed some time on the green - and tuition from our three coaches, Anne, Jill and Bob - while our captain, Jill and many more members came along to play their part, and Tina and co ensured everyone was fed.
Rumour has it we already have a new recruit as a result.
The open days are a great way of introducing the curious and the doubtful to the game - many of us joined as a result of trying it out on our green.
Although we haven't been blessed with the greatest of weather at either of our events this summer, both went ahead and our numbers boosted as a result.
You don't have to wait until next year's open days if you want to find out more. Anyone interested in joining is most welcome to contact us for more information and a chance to try it out with one of our coaching team.
