I didn’t arrive at the club until 6.50 by which time we had already lost the first game of the second match so things were looking somewhat ominous and that is how it transpired.
Cannot say much about the first match (Johan Carstens against Billy) except for giving the result.
Score
13 – 15, 7 – 15 and 11 – 15
Roger on next against Joe never really got started and also lost 3 – 0.
Scores
8 – 15, 10 – 15 and 6 – 15
At last a ray of hope in the 3rd match with Paul taking the first game against Alec. Unfortunately this turned out to be a false dawn and the next three games went to the opposition for a 3 – 1 victory.
Last, and by all means least, was myself versus Johan. The first game was going quite well until 14 – 9 up when the wheels started to fall off and I lost it 17 – 15. Tried to be competitive in the next two but couldn’t get the momentum back going down 3 – 0.
Scores
15 – 17, 11 – 15 and 11 – 15
Match result – 1/16
Thanks to Paul for saving the whitewash
Final result :1 - 16
