Shout out to Ann & Sue who played better and better each match narrowly losing their last one 10-11. Similarly Jas and Brenda found their confidence as the day went on winningvtheir last 3 matches 💪
Good resilience shown by Les and Frank, with some confident play as they progressed. Well done to Mike for partnering someone completely new in a competition like this. Robin also playing tournanent for the first time and getting over his nerves to play some great sliced returns abd winning volleys! Sally & Bridget pulling off some solid victories as did Andrew & James coming third in their group.
Great to see other picklers we knew to battle against in a friendly way.
