Victory over THE NOOK 12th Feb 2018

What a cold night! All the wall heaters were on but no effect unless you were standing under them.
Vic & Paul were there promptly with 4 of the opposition and as a result had the task of  softening up the NOOK's 1st pair. and also ensuring the opposition were sitting off in shorts were cold for the 2nd game. They achieved this with  9/21 and 11/21  games  and at game 5 achieved a defeat with scores all over 10. . Deane & Nick followed up at game 2 with a 2/1 win  subsequently winning their next games 2/0  and Mark & Issac followed with 2/0 win a 0/2 defeat & 2/0 win Leaving Vic & Paul with the honour of rounding off the evening's victory with again 0/2 and games over 10   and a conclusion within the timeframe of the court availability just before 10pm.   HURRRAHHH !!!!!

Evenings out

Hi all,
I've lost the page but try clicking this link  http://qbadc.blogspot.co.uk/p/evenings-out.html

The 3rd Mens Match of 2016/7

The 14th October saw a  defeat at home to THE NOOK.

 

Due to a late start and close Rubbers and games  running to 20 by 10.00 pm Mark and Dean who won Rubbers 1 & 5 had to   concede the final Rubber 9. Their  results were Rubbers 2/1 Games 4/3 Points 104/115 ... which considering they conceded points 42/0 for the game that couldn't be played showed how top the game they were.

 

With Scott unable to pay Paul filled in with Vic loosing all Rubbers  but with winning 1 game 25/23 and loosing another 27/29 unfortunately contributed to the need to concede the final Rubber.

 

Nick & Isaac won 1 Rubber but the two they lost both went to 3 closely fought games.

 

The overall result was Rubbers 3/6 Games 9/13  Points 376/409
