| Report: | A great match between the top 2 clubs in Division 2. Ravi and myself went on first. The match proved to be an epic battle going to 5 sets in 1h and 15 mins. Warwick took an early lead going 2-0 up. Ravi pushed on whilst Warwick looked increasingly tired to pull it level 2-2. It looked as the though match was over instantly with Ravi taking the score to 8-0 match ball quickly. However Warwick found more spirit and hussled back up to 7-8 before Ravi closing the tough fought match. Both players physical wrecks after!
In that time Lee had dispatched Stuart comfortably in 3 straight games.
Simon and Chris were then on. Simon playing some great squash intermittently against an even greater consistent Chris. Unfortunately Simon's errors was enough to gift the match to Chris in 3 games.
Matt and Dave were playing whilst I was marking the above so I didn't get to see the game. The end result being Matt losing with an 0/9 opening followed by a 10/9 win which scores could give an indication of Matt's consistency.
Guy and Will were up last and we knew we would be up for a great match. Will ran and ran and pushed guy into a worrying 2-0 down position. However just before the end of the second game there were signs of Will tiring. This effect coupled with Will fighting cramp in the legs slowly allowed guy to open the gap between the two. Great sportmanship and fighting spirit must go to Will who does not know the meaning of surrender; limping and pain 8-0 down in the fifth he still carried on running and went down fighting.
A great match only just making last orders at the bar by the time were were all showered.
Looking forward to the return match everyone and have a good break for Xmas. |
