The second month of the autumn singles league has now finished with 27 matches having been played. Congratulations to Group E who completed all matches. On the basis of 2 points for a win and 1 for a loss the current scores are as follows: (Note the surprise and undoubtedly temporary leader!) 11:Terry Oakes. 10:Richard Jones, Steve Ingle, Lionel Stride. 9:Jeremy Law, Pippa Slough. 8:Paul Morgan, Jo Kennedy. 7:Richard Embry, Simon Hancock. 6:Jonny Petch, Ji Yi Khoo, Adam Briggs, James Reed, Matt Hudspith. 5:Greta Musu, Andrew Last. 4:Joe Chadwick, Georgi Gechev, Andrew Douglas, Joe Heaver, Simon Miley, John Wiltshire,Louise Hird, Richard Cumbley, Dennis Parker. 3:Chris Drew, Karen Dervish, Steve Mead. 2:David Zamora, Christa Gecheva. 1:Henry Brooks, Hamza Barbouche. The top four players as of the end of November will take part in a 1 set round robin competition for the Singles League trophy at 1 pm on Sunday 14th December-please keep this date free. Below are details of the November league. Where practicable I have promoted the top players from the October league and relegated the less successful. Players who did not compete in October without explanation have been omitted.
You will have 3 matches to play this month-matches are best of 3 tie break sets with a match tie break (first to 10) instead of the 3rd set. If both players agree in advance you can alternatively play best of three sets (no match tie break) or one set only. Please record the score on the club notice board.
Two points will be awarded for a win and 1 for a loss. Matches can be played in any order but I suggest:
Week 1:1 v 2, 3 v 4,
Week 2: 1 v 3, 2 v 4
Week 3: 1 v 4, 2 v 3
Email addresses are shown as cc (in group order). Please contact your opponents immediately. These matches must be played by 30th November. Let me know if you have had no response from your email so that I can give you a phone contact number.
Matches can be played at any mutually convenient time (preferably not during social tennis sessions)- let me know if you need to book a court.
Regards
Terry

Singles League FINAL - Congrats to Olly Lester! 11/12/09
The finals of this year's singles league took place on 11th December.
Group A was reasonably straightforward. The final positions were: 1st Olly
Lester 3, 2nd Terry Oakes 2, 3rd Kevin Laws 1, 4th Richard Matthews 0.
Group B was extremely close with several very tight matches. The positions
had to be determined by games won and then head to head. Positions were: 1st
Tomasz Zbikowski 2, 2nd Steve Ingle 2, 3rd Simon Hancock 2, 4th Jean-Marc Michel
(replaced by Chris Drew for final group match) 0.
Play off were then held to determine the final positions. These produced a
final order of
1-Olly Lester, 2-Tomasz Zbikowski, 3-Terry Oakes, 4-Steve Ingle, 5-Simon
Hancock, 6-Kevin Laws, 7-Chris Drew, 8- Richard Matthews.
Congratulation to all but especially Olly on four very convincing victories
at a total loss of three games!
