League Secretary's Report 22nd January 2010

The badminton league is back in full swing after a short break and Longslade Men edge nearer to the top flight with a fine away win in division 2 at South Leicestershire. In division 3b Leys remain favourites for promotion after defeating neighbours Loughborough Town. In division 5a title challengers Zen came unstuck at Hoton despite Kevin Whittingham and Carl Herbert scoring a maximum for the visitors.

In the Mixed leagues Leys seconds now lead division 2 after completing the double over Melton. Leys thirds also have top spot after their convincing win at Enderby. Although Quorn lead division 4A, Glen and Countesthorpe are now closing in. Sue Howitt and Steve Warner scored a maximum for Countesthorpe in their win at Wanlip. In division 4b Zen edged Birstall at home 5 -4, where the visitors Karen Hill and Ken Sewell were unbeaten.  Zen’s title challenge however disappeared as they lost at Mundella , who themselves now present a challenge to leaders Leicester University.

No doubt as to whom the driving force is in the top Ladies division as South dominated Longslade. Melton move into second spot in division 2 after an emphatic win over Mundella. Central almost snatched their first win of the season, but Leys Carole Spencer and Sally Turner proved too strong.

In the Hall league only a unlikely series of results can now prevent Longslade from retaining their division 1 title. Enderby remain favourites for the division 2 title.
