| Report: | Match Report [by Tim E]
As the season is drawing to a close rankings are starting to reveal themselves. The wheat has been harvested and the chaff was left to battle it out.
Anna was first to draw blood on centre court against Andrew. Leaving her husband to watch the kids, cook the dinner and clean the grout out the downstairs shower room she had some housework of her own to do. Andrew had his work cut out to get hold of the game. Before he knew it Anna had found her stride and showed no mercy. 1-0 Cowbridge.
Already in action Tim and Steen were battling it out on the end court. Normally reliant on the age of his average competitor falling over half a century and carrying a couple of hip replacements, Tim had his work cut out against Steen but managed to find his groove and see the match out. It won't be long until the 14 year old will be too good for this league. 2-0
The crowd didn't need any directions to the next game as they followed the yellow brick road to watch James take on Iwan. There was plenty of heart in this game for the Tin man as he cruised to victory and collected another 3 points for Cowbridge. The modern husband took a second victory later on in the night as he slipped on a new pair of Nike Airs to celebrate his victory. Heads were turning in Cowbridge RFC social.
Ray, who back from injury (again) valiantly stepped in at late notice to take on Aelig. The bribes of freshly baked goods from the Frenchman to concede the game were left on deaf ears. No Welsh cake was going to deprive Ray of a victory here. After this hard earned game that man must be due a holiday? 4-0
With the team 4-0 up and nothing to play for in this end of season dead end rubber the number 1's took to the court for the last game. Morgan looking to enjoy a friendly game gave Dan the serve as a gesture of good will. Dan accepting this advantage had other things in mind. Leading her into the false sense of security that he was just a jovial Geordie in towel knee length Fila shorts. Harmless right? Think again. Absorbent as those shorts look there was still blood left on the court. Dan took no prisoners as he grasped victory on a dodgy stroke call to finish the match.
Fortunately the jovial Geordie redeemed himself with some fantastic home baked chocolate brownies for afters. Thanks Dan and thanks to Rhiwbina for a great evening finished off with pie, chips, mushy pies and a fashion show.
