League Play Offs

League Play Offs


Sunday morning saw Cape Ladies setting off at the crack of dawn for Merlin - it was the League Finals Day.

This is the first year this competition has been played and it was a learning curve for everyone.

We arrived early enough to have coffee before the matches began; Sue Roworth the County Captain started everyone off and emphasized a couple of the local rules for us and the fact that each match had to be played to a finish... and then the Ladies were off.

Cape were playing China Fleet and what a great match it turned out to be. 



If this had been an ordinary league match the result would have been a win for China Fleet 4 to 3.

Well played China Fleet - it was a contest played in the best of spirits.

Two matches were all square at the 18th, one of which proceeded to the first to get a result!
Three other matches were decided on the 18th!

This was a hard fought contest in tricky conditions... the wind was getting stronger by the minute and we didn't envy the teams who were going out to contest the final (Falmouth v China Fleet).

Our Fab team!


Well played the Cape Ladies for playing today - Di, Lindsay, Fran, Claire, Lyn, Fi and Sue D, we almost did it!

Many thanks also to the supporters who came - Viv, Chris L and Judy and Jayne plus Brian, William and Ellie who were there from the start! 

Extra thanks to Jayne for being willing to play in the afternoon if needed, at very short notice! 

Well done everyone.
