5th LEAGUEvs Winchester Hills

What can I say? The mighty 5th league have finally been defeated.

CvH went on first against Hans Mordt at No 3, and despite getting to 1-0 and 6-0, managed to lose 9-2, 6-9, 4-9 and 5-9. Left my brain at work and forgot the new rule our Chairman highlighted 2 weeks ago (still cannot remember it, but it has something to do with playing against your opponent and not against the Ref!!) Lost 3-1

Next on was Trevor at No.1 against Paul. Trevor managed to just lose the first and win the second, but eventually lost 3-1. By now we had heard that Vevek and Sadesh had gone to Western Rackets instead of Winchester, and were on route.

Fortunately Winchester were happy to wait for 20 minutes, and Sadesh went on against Alan Eve as soon as he arrived. Lost the first while still suffering from jet lag, then put together some fine squash to win the next two, leaving Alan scratching his head as to what to do. Unfortunately Alan got back into the game with some advice from Hans, and won the next two. Great try Sadesh, that elusive win is soon to arrive. Lost 3-2

Finally Vevek went on against Darren Dickson, and after winning the first comfortably, something changed and Darren stepped up a gear and won the next three. Lost 3-1


Match result : 5-16
