Huw and Bethany won a great victory in two ends.
Trevelyan and Daphne worked hard but lost in two ends.

Somerset ran out 21-15 winners.

However the Team had 6 new players and there were great performances by all players which bodes well for the season.
Particular mention to Ross-winning 5 from 5 and Sophie Hoskin who as a newcomer to the county scene played the game in a great spirit and took her mixed to 3 ends,a great Team performance from which all players should take pride in their commitment.
