Premier League 2018/19 in focus: Essex Open
Ahead of the 2018-19 Premier League returning to action this weekend after the Christmas break, we shine a spotlight on Essex Open’s recent form and one of their standout players…
Essex Open – Premier League 2
- Round 7: The Downs 43-48 Essex Open
- Round 8: Essex Open 39-42 Hucclecote
- Round 9: Essex Open 50-44 Clan
- Round 10: Ryland 56-44 Essex Open
It was a mixed month for Essex with two wins and two defeats. A closely fought victory over The Downs was followed by a narrow defeat against leaders Hucclecote. When Essex led 35-34 going into the last quarter it seemed that Essex would become the first team to inflict defeat upon the unbeaten leaders, but they eventually suffered a narrow defeat. A good victory over Clan was followed by defeat against Ryland.
