There was a very close encounter between Hull-bridge B and Thorpe Bay A in the Premier Division of the Southend and District Table Tennis League.
The result was decided in the fifth and final set of the last game of the match.
John Monk had already bagged a hat-trick for Thorpe Bay and when Jamie Willson scraped home against Hullbridge's Nigel Lamb he gained his second win of the night and secured a last gasp victory for his team.
There was a Rawreth derby when the B team hosted the A side. Steve Edwards was in good form to notch up a maximum for the A team and Graeme Hurry narrowly missed emulating him, but lost deuce in the fifth set to Babul McLeod.
One win for Nicolas Moulins completed the 6-3 scoreline for the victorious A team.
