Combined 2 had their 2nd match of the week with the return against
Beaverhill. With Dave W recovered from man flu he replaced Ben in the
only change to either side.
In the opening mens & ladies
rubbers both Clive/Dave W & Cindy/Jane managed to be competitive but
both succumbed in straight ends as the opposition again flexed their
muscles. Turning around Clive/Dave H also couldn't get an end in their
rubber but Cindy/Lesley managed to take their rubber to a deciding end
before narrowly losing out. So the level doubles again went 4-0 to
Beaverhill.
The mixed did not improve the score unfortunately. Jane/Dave W battled hard in taking both their rubbers to 3 ends, with the winning scores being 22-20 & 25-23, but couldn't seal a rubber for the side. Neither Lesley/Dave H or Cindy/Clive could get a rubber either so a final scoreline of 9-0 matches the home result but with 4 rubbers going to a deciding end it was a slightly improved result in one respect.
We'd all like to wish our opponents well for the remainder of the season, they look like a side destined for division 1 & combined 1 next season.
