Despite having the home advantage, playing at New Gilson Hall for the only time this season, Jersey were beaten 12-3 by Kent 2nds in their Division 2C clash.

The Island side were without two regulars in Chris Cotillard and Kim Ashton who were playing in a Hampshire Badminton Open event.

Nevertheless the depleted side gave it their all and fought hard with seven of the 15 matches being taken to three sets.
