We have now completed our mens team fixtures for the summer season and it has been another encouraging series of matches after our winter promotion.
The depth of our squad continues to grow and we have chosen from a pool of 13 players this summer, including three talented juniors. We are confident that the team will continue to grow in strength and will start moving up the leagues.
For this season, we didn't quite get promoted but came extremely close! Here's a quick summary of our matches:
- We won (5-4) at Riverside, with Max Smith and Kevin Stickley clinching the winning point in 3rd set championship tie break.
- Against Ventnore, we were beaten by a young and very talented team.
- We lost (4-5) at Lyndhurst, losing a championship tie break in the final match. However, this score was a vast improvement over our match against Lyndhurst in the winter when we lost 0-9.
- We won (5-4) at Knightwood, with Jose and Angelo Dignomo winning a championship tie break in the final match.
So, we now look forward to the winter league, with the men's team having been promoted at the end of 2018/19. If you are interesting in bolstering our squad, we'd love to hear from you!
