Keith and Carol Kelly top the table with five wins out of five after they eased to a 25-13 victory against Bob and Christine Tice.

But the Kellys didn’t fare so well in their Friday Mixed Pairs game despite building a good lead early on.

They led 10-0 and then looked comfortable at 17-2, but it all went wrong as opponents Rachael Stanley and Mike Norton suddenly found their form to win all the remaining ends and stage an amazing comeback and win 24-17.
