U league loss to Guildford & Godalming 1-6

Published · Updated

After a series of withdrawals, a team of three made their M25 way to Guildford Rugby Club where GGCC are now based on the old bowls lawn, their famous slopey lawn (not used for matches) and a pair of new lawns beyond.

With no irrigation, these were extremely dry, very fast and difficult to judge. Single-point breaks were the order of the day and neither Mick nor Tom was able to get the pace of the lawn.

Results:
Tom Carpenter (4.5) lost to Ian Fugeman (7) -9
Mick Belcham (5) lost to Barry Gould (7) -16
Alex Jardine (2.5) beat Robert Bateson (7) +18
Mick lost to Ian Fugeman -6
Tom lost to Fred Bell (16) -10
