Sunday Morning Juniors
Just the 4 juniors last week but that allowed them plenty of one-on-one coaching to brush up their technique and learn plenty of tips to improve their game. In between the ball tossing and ball and cup relays there was plenty of games with JB, Jake, Tristan and Hayley doing heaps of running on the court. Good luck to the juniors at the Cardiff training session this Saturday at 9.30am (free entry) and looking forward to seeing everyone back this Sunday. (new players welcome with all equipment provided).

Robin Hood Bar and Grill held off Railway Hotel by 14 points to 10 with Railway's Charlotte "feeling lucky" Sellers grabbing two vital games in her five-set loss to sub Deborah "make my day" Pritchard in an entertaining match. Edward Higgens Parkinson continued their winning ways with a good win over Sparke Helmore by 19 points to 7 with Belinda "must keep going" Stephens coming back from 2-1 down to overcome a running Drew "running on empty" Anderson in a marathon five setter.

Tuesday Night Round 4

Muswellbrook RSL snuck home by a game 15 points to 12 against Curtis Gant Betts with CGB having a head start after Scott "trip advisor" McCarthy came back from 2-1 down against Nick "speed racer" Havyatt to take the next two games 16-14, 15-13 in a thrilling five-setter. Match of the week was also between Muswellbrook RSL and Curtis Gant Betts with RSL's Mark "ho-ho-ho" Rikard-Bell and CGB's Sebastion "dasher" Angelillo with Sebastian jumping out of the gates to win the first game 15-12. Mark settled into the match taking the second 15-13, but Sebastian countered taking the third 15-13 with both players burning plenty of calories. Game four and with the match hanging by a thread Mark bounced back to level the match 15-13 and then made every shot a winner to take the fifth 15-6 in a nail-biting match.
