Collapse AllNorthwood and Ruislip Singles - Round 11 | Thursday 12 April 2018 to Wednesday 6 June 2018 (Midpoint: Wednesday 9 May 2018)

An excellent round to get the summer season underway in the Cavendish Rec & Queensmead league. Over 80% of matches were played and many of these were competitive encounters. Thanks for all your efforts and we hope to see you again next time!

Group Summary:

A five star performance from George on his return to the league, sees him power into top spot. There was little to choose between Tomisin and Rajat in the race for second place with both players tied on eight points apiece. Their head to head therefore comes into play and it was Tomisin who had that little bit extra, emerging with a straight sets win to claim the silver. A great show of commitment from you all to get every match played.

Group Summary:

Ivan's first match of the round against Ross was " a real thriller", and after making it through this tough encounter he didn't look back, as he moved into the lead with a 100% winning record. Ross also carried on his fine form from this match and records four straight victories to deservedly finish in the runner up spot. It was great to see our prize department kept busy thanks to your excellent scheduling skills.
