The Billesley league is still trying to find it's feet with only 1 group this round. Hopefully, with Summer approaching (fingers crossed!) we will have a greater turnout next time with lots of matches played.
Group Summary:
An epic encounter between Anton and Jahual saw Anton come out on top, and claim the group! But did Jessica let the guys off the hook? Her win over Anton was pretty impressive. Top marks to Hannah for playing 3 matches and earning her bonus points. Meanwhile, here's to finding some more players and expanding the groups next time!

- "It was a great match. Hannah is a very difficult opponent, chasing every ball, very aggresive as well. There were plenty of good rallies, some high quality moments from both sides. To be honest the scoreboard is a little unfair. " -- Anton
