GC Team B v Compton B

Team B, comprising Janet Curtecka, David Boyd, Martin Birch and Richard Perkins, welcomed Compton B, on a mainly sunny afternoon on Friday 26th July, for our 3rd match in the CSE Advantage Handicap League.

With handicaps in our team ranging from -1 to 10, and theirs from 4 to 12, it promised to be an interesting event, with some challenging starting scores.

After round 1, the doubles round, the score was 1 all. We went into round 2, the singles round, with some trepidation, and finished 2-4 down. So it was all to play for in round 3, one doubles and two singles. We needed a win in all three games to win the match ……no pressure!

The team responded magnificently, and in three hard fought games, two of which were “which way is it going to go seven-sixers?” , managed to secure a 5-4 win, graciously accepted by Compton (who had a nasty journey home ahead of them).

Well done all.
