VC of GB v Bromley CC


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.
