The Captains of the day were Val Stevens and Sally Garvey.
The match the Ladies played against Mote Park yesterday went ahead in a very friendly manner, with everyone enjoying a very pleasant time. Sevenoaks started with a 10 point bonus because Mote Park could only field 5 rinks, which was soon overtaken by Mote Park, gaining a strong early lead. However, Sevenoaks fought back to cut Mote Park’s large lead down to a much narrower points difference.
On the Captain’s rink Mote Park’s advantage was very largely due to Mote Park’s lead, who consistently gave her side a big advantage with a brilliant performance, putting her woods very near the jack almost every time. On our side the accolades must go to Ann Munro, skip of no. 2 rink. By the 14th end of the game Ann’s side had got a fair way behind, scoring only 7 points to Mote Park’s 22 but pulled back to a very exciting finish, with the score 21 to 22 for Mote Park on end 20. However, Ann played 2 beautiful woods on her final end, making their score 23 to 22 for Sevenoaks.
Rinks 3, 4 and 6 were only very narrowly beaten in the last few ends.
The final score was 99 to Mote Park and 87 to Sevenoaks.
Sevenoaks came away with 2 well earned and hard fought points.
