Monkstone Pétanque Club

Week 6 of the Super League left Marlins, who managed to pluck a draw from the jaws of victory, in their match against Misfits as the only team without a win. Mammoths got their first win of the season by beating Mercenaries (3-1) who continue lose touch with the leaders after their very bright opening games.

Meanwhile Mustangs went to the top of the table with a (4-0) win over Mavericks   Meerkats  and Marvels fought out a draw which lifted Marvels up the table and knocked Meerkats of the top spot.

So onto the final week before the winter break – can Marlins get that elusive first win?
