A resounding 5-0 victory over relegation-threatened Maddocks C lifted Shifnal back into top spot but the highlight of the evening was undoubtedly Davies’ stunning display.

He produced a superb 96 break, equalling Paul Harper’s highest break in the league, and was on track for a magical ton but was unlucky to get a kick on the final yellow.

Shifnal’s dominance continued, with Keith Price, Steve Powell, with a 36 break, Ian Duffy and John Fallows securing comfortable~ wins.

This victory propels Shifnal five points clear of their rivals Dawley B, who have a game in hand.

In other Division One clashes, Bayley B secured a crucial win against their A side, thanks to a deciding-frame victory from Spencer Clarke.

Meanwhile, Dawley G emerged victorious in the deciding frame against BallPoint A, courtesy of Adam Moore.

In Division Two, Wistanswick continued their unstoppable march towards the title with a hard-fought 3-2 win over second-placed Anstice.

Jason Boyd emerged as the hero, winning the deciding frame.

BallPoint B solidified their promotion aspirations by moving into second place with a convincing 4-1 win over Bayley.

Bayley D’s promotion hopes took a hit as they suffered a 4-1 defeat against Maddocks E, with Mark Wall delivering a stand-out performance against the in-form Ben Godding, including a 26 break.

The last match of the evening, saw Bayley E triumph in their in-house derby clash against clubmates Bayley Z, as they secured a 3-2 victory.
