Devon fought back from a disappointing first day at the LTA Winter Indoor County Cup to beat Durham & Cleveland (5-4) and North Wales (5-4). It was enough to see them finish third in Group 4b at Barnstaple. The men recovered well after losing 7-2 against Bedfordshire to beat Oxfordshire 5-4. Exeter's Andrew Norton and Exmouth's Oskar Wynne sealed a 7-2 defeat of Hereford & Worcester and second place in Group 5b. Justin Kraushar, from Exeter, and Sampford Peverell's Alfie Flatters were also in the men's squad. Exeter's Kate Brown was proud of her team after fighting back so well after Devon were beaten 7-2 by Somerset. Brown won 6-4, 4-6, 7-5 and later teamed up with Seaton's Emma Hurst to win 6-2, 7-6 (7-4). On the final day, Hurst won 6-4, 6-1 and Isabella Brown, from Budleigh Salterton, had a 6-4, 6-2 success. The match of the day was a fabulous 6-3, 6-7 (6-8), 12-10 win for Exmouth's Nikki Trelease and Rebecca Ley.
