Bend it like Darren

NCPA Division 3

SF Wanderers Wildcats 1, Bressingham Flyers 4 (Agg 46-62)

An excellent win that moves us up into third place.  It was all square after the triples and a slight change around in the pairings proved successful.  By the way, I always make out the scorecard 'who plays with who' before I see my opponents card.  I think this is how it is meant to be done.

Steven and Jordan almost let a big lead slip but Jordan saved his best boules till last.  Les and myself played a fairly high scoring game (lots of threes) but held firm.  The last pairing of Darren and Russ finished off in style, with Russ pointing in a good boule first.  No one could beat it, although the opponents had done their best to surround it.  But, within a flash, Darren used some side spin swervery (no such word) to score another three points to win the game and improve our goal difference :).


Next match - home to Wallabies (another St. Faiths team) who I think lost 3-2 to Diss Duval the same night/venue.  We also have to venture out this way again soon, as we are due to play SF Wanderers Dolphins from the 1st division in the Plate 1st round.
