U9 AEGON match vs Elstead - Sunday 1st May 2011
A team comprised of Spencer, Jonathon, Matis and Daniel drove us to Aegon success with a 12-8 victory.
This was a very tough match as their (orange 1) 1 and 2 players had better ranking then ours: they were very match experienced with more than 40 tournaments behind them and were very well coached players with a fabulous technique - jasmine especially! Having said that our (Orange 2) 1 and 2 players competed very well in the singles matches against their opposite numbers, taking them to 3 sets and Spencer won against their top player which made us win the match!
These boys really delivered and carried on building their experience and confidence. Fantastic to see.
Beyond the match, all seem to really enjoyed themselves almost as much as the parents.
