17TH NOVEMBER 2017
The fourth annual GBVets doubles match against Bromley
Cricket Club took place on the 17th November. This year
the GBVets were quite confident of sealing victory with
their squad:
Darren Beevers and Adam Rich
Mandy Akin and Karen Hume
Nick Wise and Robert Smith
Graham Edwards and Nigel Belle
Unfortunately BCC had other ideas
and triumphed, fielding a team of experienced regular
doubles players.
Darren and Adam won both matches, although had a tough
match against BCC number one pairing of Steve Pusey and
Alan Leffen (also GB Vets). This same BCC pair nudged
victory against Mandy and Karen 15/13 in the 3rd. Mandy
and Karen also narrowly lost to BCC number 2 pair
Alistair McMeckan and Dan Sweeny-also GBVets- in the
third. Nick and Robert, Graeme and Nigel were both
victorious in one of their two closely fought matches.
Final points score BCC 21 points, GBVets 15
points.
Our thanks must go to BCC for an excellent meal and an
extremely sociable evening.
But........beware- next year GBVets will be back with a
vengeance.
