Following a week off, the team travelled to Shrivenham for a much anticipated match against Defence Academy.
In the first game Rob played valiantly against Richard Bishop whose hard hitting proved too much for him. Richard with his accuracy and consistency then overcame David Drake in straight games. Martin had a really close five set match against Richard Bishop who's tight shots down the walls and drops just proved the difference. Tom had four really close games against Nev Buckle at first string all of which could have gone either way but unfortunately Nev managed to find a way through to win in four. Finally Mark had a really tight match against the tricky Mike Hyand that seesawed back and forth but with Mike winning the fifth.
So Defence Academy won the match 4-1 but the difference between the teams was very small.
Tom Scott-Cowell lost 1-3 vs Nev Buckle
Mark McGuiness lost 2-3 vs Mike Hyland
Richard Edwards won 3-0 vs David Drake
Martin Ball lost 2-3 vs Richard Bishop
Rob Marshall lost 0-3 vs Steve White
