Reveal CommentRyan Martin bt James Castelino (Aug 18) 6-3, 2-6, 6-3Player Comments:
- "Great game of short stuff and lobs, and a fair amount of service breaking by both players. Exhausting fun. Thanks for the game " -- Dean
Player Comments:
- "Hard fought battle which was neck and neck throughout and could have gone either way to be honest. Fortunately it went my way in the end! Thanks Dave, really enjoyed it " -- Jonathan
Player Comments:
- "Very windy day by the coast, long rallies and getting dark by the end, so only played the tie-break in lieu of the third set. Thanks for the work out Ryan!" -- David
Player Comments:
- "Hot but not impossible. Sun going down and getting a bit tricky to see some of the high balls. Great 2nd set with James getting everything back and me losing the ability to hit a winner. We had some exhausting baseline rallies most of which James won out of sheer doggedness and ability to stay in the point. He also played some fantastic lobs. I think that 2nd set took a lot out of us and although he didn't play badly in 3rd set, parts of my game came back. Exhausting.Thankfully it was only 3 sets. Well played, look forward to the rematch." -- Dean
Player Comments:
- "Hot morning, good rallies and nice cooling swim at the end. Thanks for the game and banter Stefan." -- David
Player Comments:
- "Too hot for tennis. Hardly any breeze. Great to meet Stefan. It was rather one sided but good to play non the less. His first serve could be a very useful weapon if employed more often. Dean " -- Dean
Player Comments:
- "Lovely evening to play tennis. Enjoyable game with Stefan.. some good rallies, he kept me on my toes" -- James
Player Comments:
- "Great to play against Dave. We had tried last week but had to postpone due to unfortunate circumstances early in the first set ( Dave was winning). This time the wind was a factor and it took a while to gauge the massive differences at each end. Enjoyed the game and look forward to playing again. " -- Dean
Player Comments:
- "Thanks for the game Stefan. Pretty windy morning which made it hard to really get any rallies going properly. I think under different conditions the scoreline might have been quite different. Good to meet you and thanks for coming all the way over from Sandwich!" -- Jonathan
Player Comments:
- "Thanks for the game James. You certainly got me running around and score doesn't really reflect the number of deuce games we had. Cheers" -- Jonathan
Player Comments:
- "We carried on despite the warm drizzle that turned to rain for a time. Thankfully no slips or injuries either side, but good banter with James and smiles when the sun eventually shone. Can summer please start now? thanks for the game James." -- David
Player Comments:
- "We dodged the rain and conditions were actually pretty good for tennis. Some decent rallies and a fair number of deuce games Thanks Jonathan. Very enjoyable. Dean" -- Dean

Reveal CommentVal Bogdan bt Gareth Williams (Aug 4) 6-1, 4-6, [10-4]Player Comments:
- "It was perfect Summer's Day for tennis. Several long deuce games. We opted for tie break rather than complete 3rd set. Thanks for a fun match Gareth. " -- Val
Player Comments:
- "A very windy afternoon but a very enjoyable match. The first game took 10 minutes to complete so we both were ready for a long match and some long rally’s and games did follow. I had to get my first serve in as Duncan was attacking my second. The wind got stronger and it put us both off our flow and I managed to get the win. The score doesn’t really show how close it was at times. Thanks Duncan I hope we can play again soon. " -- Gareth
