Dear All, Playing for the team were: Chris Drew, Steve Ingle, James Reed and Roger Tagholm.
In muggy conditions it was an even well played match on the Merrow's sandy astro courts. Steve and I fought back well after a slow start against Merrow's 2nd pair to dominate the second set and edge the match tie-break to take the lead. James and Roger fought hard against the first pair coming from 3-5 down in the second set to force a tie-break and then fighting back from 1-6 to 5-6 in the tie-break before missing out. In their second match James and Roger struck back strongly to force a match tie-break but went down 5-10. Against Merrow's first pair Steve and myself saved two set points on my serve at 4-5 15-40 in the first set which proved crucial. After taking the first set on the tie-break we eased through the second to complete the draw and ensure Wilton left with a deserved point.
Chris&Steve beat Merrow 2nd Pair 3-6 6-0 10-8 match tie-break
James&Roger lost to Merrow 1st Pair 3-6 6-7(5-7)
James&Roger lost to Merrow 2nd Pair 2-6 6-1 5-10 match tie-break
Chris&Steve beat Merrow 1st Pair 7-6(7-3) 6-2
A solid start to the season and one which we can build on. Thanks to everyone for playing and to James who fired up the Reed-mobile to get us over to Merrow and back.
