HAYDN CORBETT salvaged a draw for Lindley WMC in the final frame of their Premier Section clash at Canalside when he knocked in a half-century break in the Huddersfield Open Snooker League fixture.

Darren Bottomley and Martin Blagbrough had given Canalside B a 2-1 lead with wins over Naeem and Rob Read, while Jason McMahon had given Lindley their solitary point before Corbett took to the table and produced the week’s best break of 56 to beat Alex Blagbrough 81-59 for a 2-2 draw.

With one match remaining before the Christmas and New Year break, Marsden Lib A still lead the table by five points from Lindley Lib B.

This week Marsden completed a 3-1 win over bottom club Broad Oak BC D to stay clear of the chasing pack.
