Swindon Table Tennis: League Update

GWRSA A vs B a tall order for the B team

Division 1 : GWRSA B 0 / GWRSA A 10

GWRSA B's Colin Gore was in conciliatory mood when asked about the result of this week's match against GWRSA A. "We played well, but when you are against a team like GWRSA A, you really are playing a much higher level". There's no denying that the A team is made up of some of the league's finest players. Glen Freeman is currently 7th in the league averages, Ray Powell is 4th, and Nat Richardson is almost top of the League, in second position.

But the B team were undeterred by this and played admirably, with no bad scores on the night and a lot of close games. John Ramsden in particular was unlucky not to win any of his games, having taken Nat Richardson to 5 sets, Ray Powell to 4, and consistently just losing the deciding point 12-10 to Glen Freeman in 3. John Ramsden and Colin Bendall also put up a good fight in the doubles, taking Nat and Glen to 4 sets, so perhaps the scoreline of 10-nil was a little harsh as the conclusion to a very competitive evening.
