The reigning Men’s and Women’s champions negotiated tricky opening games this week to progress to the quarter-finals. Dennis saw off Nathan and Karen beat Eileen; both games proved to be a great watch .. but perhaps not great for the competitors’ nerves!  There’s been lots of other games played in all competitions and without any concessions which is great testimony to the enthusiasm afforded by all .. win or lose!

There were some mixed results in the Middlesex county competitions this week. The highlight was Karen coming out on top in her Women’s Champion of Champions match at Staines. She then received a walkover from Strawberry Hill in the next round to progress to the quarter-finals. Tracy & Barry enjoyed a good run in the Mixed Pairs but came out second best to an Ashford pair; as did Anita & Bob at Staines. Our last-standing Women’s Triples of Jenny, Tracy & JenB tried their best against a very experienced Ashford team.

Unfortunately, this week’s Friday Triples was postponed due to some wet weather .. it is Wimbledon after all! The matches will be played at some future date.

Next up on the green, apart from club competition games, is an SML team match with Bishop Duppas on Sunday 7th.

Just be aware that our next Club Night on Tuesday 9th coincides with a cricket function .. a T10 Exhibition Match featuring Middx & England Legends v Sunbury All Stars, starting at 5:30pm. The paddock will be open for parking.
