Week commencing 14 June 2010.
Oh dear. Two away matches, two defeats. At least the sun was shining both days!
Tuesday League – Away – Buxton Park.
As mentioned last week it was just as well we had had a good win. Buxton are top of our league and their green is very ‘tricky’ indeed. Last week we won and our opponents got 59 points. This week the scores were reversed. We lost 59 to 81. The score was not as bad as we had anticipated though. We are half way through the season (can’t believe it) so the fixtures are reversed. Let us hope we can get a few points back at home next week.
Next match – Home – Buxton Park B – 22 June 6.30
Thursday League – Away – Tideswell.
Again this is a really lovely venue and although we lost it was a gorgeous sunny day. We lost the doubles games 2 to 1, but won the singles 4 to 2. This gave a aggregate score of 132 to 121. At the start of play we were fifth in the league so hopefully with this reasonable away score we will stay in that position. All will be revealed in the fullness of time.
Next match – Away – Wirksworth – 24 June. 1.30 ish.
The friendly against Ellastone was marred by the rain, but the food was great! No matches this weekend as it is all hands to the pump for ‘Open Gardens’. It’s still not too late for baking scones for the cream teas!
