This was a re-arranged fixture at the Castle Rushen High School sports hall.  It turned out to be a close contest with five matches going to the third game. Second mens and second womens were both won in two games by Rushen’s Adrian Edwards and Richard Kerr and Sarah Goldie and Janet Corkish respectively.  First mens was the first to go to three when Rushen’s Rob Mason and Neil Ronan won 21/13 19/21 21/15 against Ben Kneale and David Gardner.  First womens also went to three but this time in Michael’s favour with Vanessa Christian and Leanne Miller winning against Kirree Ronan and Carole Ennett 18/21 21/10 21/11. This gave Rushen a useful 7-3 lead at the half way stage.  Three of the mixed went to a third game.  At fourth it was Rushen’s Edwards and Ennett who were the victors 21/11 13/21 21/18 against Michael Brew and Jess Corlett. Rushen were also victorious at third in three games when Kerr and Goldie beat Ryan Brew and Sarah Gardner 21/18 19/21 21/12.  David Gardner and Christian were the victors for Michael at second in two games.  Michael took first mixed in another close match which went to a third game, Kneale and Miller winning 21/15 13/21 21/19 against Neil and Kirree Ronan.  ER
