ECSC 3 – Abbaye S.C. 2

Well, in standard sports reporterese, “The boys done good”. A very respectable draw against a solid team.  In fact the moral victory was with us as we carded 8-7 in sets in our favour. Rob (Peters) and Gabor (Gal) put in strong performances to beat their opponents convincingly, while Pierre (Dybman) was unlucky to see his 2-0 lead hauled in by a recovering Abbaye player. Simon (Smith) – as usual – “took one for the team” and went down with all guns blazing (and some blood flowing!) to a strong no. 1 less than half his age. A pleasant bunch who are hoping to be promoted if they can secure third place.
