Collapse AllBattersea Park Doubles - Round 15 | Thursday 13 September 2018 to Wednesday 21 November 2018 (Midpoint: Wednesday 17 October 2018)

A good number of matches played in this Autumn doubles round in Battersea Park, so thanks for all your efforts as we know it can be more difficult to schedule when four people are involved. There was some "great all court play" from both new and returning pairs and well done to those of you that secured a group prize. Hope to see you again when we return in the spring!

Group Summary:

Kevin & Cary secured a couple of wins and a couple of points from unfinished matches to pull clear in first place. Alex & Jack made the new champs work hard in their head to head, which unfortunately ended as a TBC, and thanks to hard fought victories over Alex & Keren and Tom & Tommy they claim the runner up spot.

Group Summary:

There was a tight tussle between Travis & Doug and David & Nicola at the top of group two with both pairs playing four matches and notching up three wins apiece. Crucially Travis & Doug also managed to win a set in their epic unfinished encounter with Mark & Will and this gives them the extra point they need to sneak across the line in first. Kudos to John & Carol Ann for playing four matches too.

Group Summary:

Mikaela & Dick made a superb debut as a pair, beating everyone they played and scoring bonus points to put space between themselves and the rest at the top of the table. Laura & Edward came closest to upsetting the new champs with their fast start in their head to head. Well done to Lindsay & Hector for also showing excellent scheduling skills, and these combined with some battling performances sees them finish as the runner ups.
