However, this was by no means a straightforward victory, with five games going to deuce.
Olly Howes and Gordon Howes won all their matches in straight legs, but there was an amazing game during Gordon's match against Alf Stubbs which he just edged 21-19.
Alan Harper took David Flatt to a fourth leg, but the outstanding match of the evening was a fifth-leg victory for David over Barry Fortune.
