There is already a big shock with the very sad withdrawal, through injury, of the very-many-times open champion Gary Hewitt who would have been red-hot favourite to add another title to his collection.There are several new names in the seeds this year.Open singles: 1 Paul Brown, 2 Wayne Mason, 3, Steve Barber, 4 Paul Barrett (D), 5 Alan Nicholls, 6 Hilary Howlett, 7 Steve Barrett (K), 8 Mike Crowson.Ladies’ singles: 1 Wendy Nicholls 2 Anthea Rudd. Men’s doubles: 1 Alan Nicholls/Wayne Mason, 2 Hilary Howlett/Paul Brown, 3 Steve Barrett (K)/Steve Barber, 4 Richard Ambrose/Don Dixon.Ladies’ doubles: 1 Wendy Nicholls/Anthea Rudd, 2 Lucy Goodale/Kelly Chapman. Mixed doubles: 1 Anthea Rudd/Keith Burlingham, 2 Wendy Nicholls/Steve Barrett.Veterans: 1 Steve Barber, 2 Alan Nicholls, 3 Hilary Howlett, 4 Steve Barrett. Over 50: 1 Dave Attridge, 2 Mike Watts. Junior singles: 1 Wayne Mason, 2 Philip Dorrington, 3 Stephen Jones, 4 James Ruffles. Junior doubles: 1 Chris Rogerson/Philip Dorrington, 2 Wayne Mason/James Ruffles.Under 14: 1 Jack Mason, 2 Adam Mason, 3 Mark Pearman, 4 Adam Linnett. Under 12: 1 Bruce Mason, 2 Rachelle Pegg. Div 2 – singles: 1 Richard Pegg, 2 Philip Dorrington, 3 Keith Burlingham, 4 Steve Goodale.Div 3 – singles: 1 Steve Hunt, 2 John Wiggs; Woolwich Prem: 1 Jack Mason, 2 Adam Mason. Woolwich Div 1: 1 Simon King, 2 Charlie Crossman.*IBA League: AT the halfway point British Bulldogs have a healthy lead in Division One, although they still have to play the only other team with a 100 per cent record, Ziggy Hair Design.Ringers and Forget Me Nots are still well in contention for the runners up spot, but will need a lot of help to overtake Bulldogs.In Div Two any one of the top six sides could still take the title. Much will depend on Hospital Saints, who still have outstanding fixtures against some of the contenders. Favourites at the moment must be Cavaliers who have surprised many of their rivals, particularly with the excellent form of James Ruffles.Div Three is a two-horse race. Hunters have an eight point lead, but Swaffham Terriers have a vital game in hand.
