We had an enjoyable season at Wessex on the Winchester Fives Courts- probably our last full season on these fantastic courts as the College build their new sports centre with it’s new collection of both Winchester and Rugby Fives courts. Sadly, a couple of players did not return after COVID, but we as usual had our number bolstered by the excellent Winchester College players and we have an enthusiastic junior section with several regular U13 players coming for the start of our evenings. We had our first Southampton University student for a couple of years which was good to see, and also benefitted from a more regular Ed Hawke returning with a mended shoulder. The Letchworth Bowl was as hard fought after as ever, however we slightly misjudged how quickly Rob Moore would pick the game up again, returning on our last evening of the season for his first outing. Not having played for 2 years due to COVID and the arrival of a 5th child, it took him 1 rally to find his feet and so he and Matt Hale won an excellent evening where none of the 12 pairs won all their games. So next year we will probably start on the old courts and the money is on a move to the new centre after Christmas. Come and join us to say farewell to the old courts before it is too late! Any Tuesday evening from mid September onwards.
