From the opening sets it was clear that this was going to be a tough afternoon for the Bs. Oakham had some consistent players and their ball placement was superior to ours. It was good to see our couples persevering though, and particular mention must be made of our third pair who came very close to a win.  Increased court awareness and the ability to stay in a rally will see this group of players improve. The girls were courteous on court and a pleasure to watch.CJJ
