Match Report
Last match at the Village Hall before Christmas and another disappointing result for Taverners which completed results-wise the worse start to any season Colin and I have experienced in our many years of playing together!!
However, much credit to the Owls for their first win of the season after 4 draws in their first 7 matches. The comprehensive 8-2 win was not without a few alarms but Wojtek came back well to win in 5 against myself and then Curtis (2-0 down) in the next set went on to defeat Martin in 5.
At this stage of the overall match, Martin was in excellent form after beating Quillan and looked on for a maximum but things can change quite quickly as we all know!
Both Curtis and Wojtek achieved maximums but a particular mention again for Curtis who as well as being in very good form is clearly enjoying table tennis which is great.
Taverners will regroup and come back with our usual determination in the New Year. It may already be too late to avoid bottom spot this season but we will keep battling away!
Merry Christmas everyone and see you in January.
