GC level play doubles competition 22nd September 2023
A report from the Manager Richard Ellis:
We had a wonderful day today. Apart from a brief shower we were blessed with delightful weather.
The competition was played in 3 blocks. Block A, the top block, was hard fought but won by Richard Carline and Louise Taylor who only dropped one match. Block B was clearly won by Vincent L’Estrange & Simon Ancell, who won every match they played. Block C was very closely run between Diana Rolfe and Jim Mander against Rachel and Richard Pointon. They both had won 4 games, and ended up with net 10 hoops, so the final decision came to the last game where Rachel and Richard were able to beat Diane and Jim.
Angela and Hilary put on a wonderful spread for us at mid-day and we need to thank them for all their hard work.
Thanks also to Richard for managing the event with an awkward number of entries
