3rd LEAGUE A vs Wanderers
First
match of the season we played Wanderers away, pretty much same faces.
We were short our strong nos 1 & 2 so Gary and Richard has to step
up. Both were hammered. But as least we had wins at 3 & 4.
First
up was Vevek against a new youngster, Nick. Good runner, hit the ball
well but a bit loose and lacking experience. Vevek worked him out early
and won the first comfortably. Vevek went well up in the 2nd but then started playing his opponents game and ended up losing that game. And the next. Vevek came back and won the 4th. The 5th was a hard close game which could have gone either way. Vevek managed to win it 17-15 or somewhere there.
Next was Richard against Eric. Maybe the anti-biotics were still in Richard’s system but Eric won fairly comfortably.
Then
Gary played Mo, their strong no 1 who was playing 3 at the beginning of
last year and Vevek beat from 0-2 7-14 down. Mo was too strong for Gary
and it was over in under half an hour.
Last
up our new team member Andrew Fourie against Bruce. They both play the
same type of game and it was a monster 5 setter with Andrew winning the 5th also 17-15 or something like that.
And then we were forced to eat pizza and drink giant beers.
Gary: 0-3
Richard: 0-3
Vevek: 3-2
Andrew F: 3-2
Match Result: Lost 6 – 12.
4th LEAGUE A vs Chamber B

7th LEAGUE A vs Modderfontein
First
Match of the season. At #3, Gabriel took on Ian. A see-saw match, Gabe
taking the first, Ian the second, Gabe the third and Ian the fourth. The
fifth was titanic with the final score being 20-18 to our new recruit
to 7th, Gabriel. Welcome. Great start to the season and the captain spoke to Gabes later requesting shorter matches in the future!
Next
Captain Peter LR at #2 took on Vashan. Pete wore him out in the first,
scoring twice as many points. Vashan was buggered and never recovered
from the Peter onslaught, losing 3-0.
Mike
played Tanya at #4. He was requested by the Captain to show no mercy
for the women! Mike listened to the Captain and won the first two.
However, Mike’s attention wandered (can’t think where!) and he lost the
third. To give himself a birthday present he pulled finger and won the
fourth easily, romping to an 8-0 lead which he never surrendered. Thus,
winning the match 3-1, securing a win for the team and maintaining a
100% record in his 64th year.
Fantastic start to the season with a 16 pointer.
Times are a changing, no meal. Another tradition bites the dust.
Mike and Tanya having a celebratory birthday drink. Now he knows where his mind wandered in the fourth!
We wish Dave a swift recovery from a recent operation and George all the luck with his replacement hip operation on 5th April. We sincerely hope that it will improve his squash for the 2019 season!
Squash Tip of the Week
Always listen to the Leadership team (in our case the Captain). A winning strategy may be shared.
Match score: 16-4
