4th vs Randburg
It was like a Master’s game. Chamber brought 4 Master’s players who play at Randburg every Thursday, Randburg brought only 2. Sneaked a couple of youngsters in.
Ryan played first against Roy Plumstead. Was a close match with the master teaching the youngster what happens if you don’t play tight. In the 5th, Ryan ran back for a shot placed in the left back corner, tripped and hit his face on the back wall. Luckily Sven was the marker who started his stop watch and gave Ryan the full 5 minutes allowed to recover. We weren’t sure he was going to continue. Ryan played great squash until the fuzziness cleared in his head but managed to hang on and win 15-13.
Gary played next against Eugene. Gary made hard work of it and only won in 5.
Phil then played against Sven and although the first was close, Phil was never really in the match and Sven won 3-0.
Vevek played last against Ryan Cooper. Vevek started strong and managed to go 2-0 up, but then looked a bit tired and Ryan clawed back. Ryan won the 3rd and looked like he was going to win the 4th. Vevek came back from 12-14 down to win the 4th.
Jeff chose to sit out but came down to support and was the team coach – gave all the players good advice between the games.
