This puts us level on points with Bracknell both on 49 points but still in second place due to points difference, but we do have them on our turf in the new year!!
There were some great preformences today from Cents three new signings of Ben Slatter, Ryan Garrot,and man of the match Dan Knapmen who have all had a great start to the season.
