Datchworth update – 6 of the best for Legends

As bad weather disrupted Datchworth matches across county both our teams played thanks to the Dome.

Team 2 should have been away at Watton but rescheduled to play at Legends as the rain set in.  Husband and wife Jo and Jonty Field started well with a 13-0 victory against two plucky youngsters.  Match 2 was much closer with Jo struggling through injury with John Moore to win 8-5.  When Jonty rejoined the fray the final set ran out 11-2 to Legends.

Team 1 had Joe McStravick freshly returned from Mexican honeymoon and feeling rusty.  You wouldn’t have known as he and Patricia ran out 13-0.  I joined Patricia for a 10-3 victory where her consistency made up for some appalling net-play by yours truly.  In the final set Joe and I tried to outdo each other with poor errors but still won 10-3.

Both teams extend their lead at the top of their respective tables.

Next week Team 1 are at home again to Knebworth.  I am joined by Saskia and hopefully by Jamie moving up from his recent 2nd team victory.  Team 2 are away at Lister with John being joined by Lanying and Simon.  Here’s to winning ways continuing.

Take care all

Andrew
