Badge Round 7

/in , /by

At the half way point of Badge we have two Manly teams coming first in their divisions:  our Ladies 2 Team captained by Julie Porteous and our Mens 3 Team captained by Steve Nettleton. 

Four other Manly teams are also in the top 3.This has been a good start but there is still a long way to go to the finals.  All captains by now should know which pairs are performing well and try new combinations if needed.

The highlights of last Saturday’s play were:

  • Julie’s team winning 7-1 to stay on top of the ladder.  Julie and Olivia won 3 sets and Krista and Kristina won 2 sets easily and won 2 on forfeit.
  • Steve Nettleton’s team defeated Manly 4, 6 sets to 2.  The two Steves won 4 sets again to take their record to 11 from 12.
  • The Mens 1 team played a draw.  Bosko and Andrew Riminton won 4 sets to keep up their winning record.

This Saturday the Mens and Ladies Division 1 teams both play at home in late matches.

Good luck to all teams this weekend
