This was a decider match for RM1 and a win or draw required to secure the league. .. RM1 nominated pair Khalid and Tom played their first game with an easy first rubber, however much to their surprise and disappointment the other 2 rubbers were taken by the opponents thereby costing us our first gameš£. Meanwhile Billy and myself played our second pair and with Billy's smashes šøand quick recovery only meant the opponents couldn't keep upš„. It was 1 each for both teams by now.
Moving on, Tom and Khalid swiftly won their second pair with good court coverage and timely smashes, alternating with unexpected drops.š¤©. Billy and myself couldnt keep the same form with their first pair losing the third rubber by inches. In the split were Tom and myself where Tom was playing with good form and some good chemistry and clinical precision š„¼on the court meant straight 2 games for Rm1. We were 3-2 at this point and the final game wherein Billy and Khalid did their best to defend their side with repeated smashes and drops. It did however end up in favour of the hunters and we ended the night with 3-3 draw.
A couple of friendlies followed before concluding the evening. With this, RM1 is presently leading the league chartšš. With another final match scheduled in April @ home (against st Philips) we hope to win this season on a strong note. It will be the final match from the Rugby league and support from the club members as always will be great....šš
