Herts Summer League - Melbourn II vs Biggleswade IV, 15th August 2023

Melbourn lost 10-5

3rd string: Moises Vs Michael
Another match with Moises saw him use his pace and power to overwhelm Michael Broadbent in the 1st closing out the first 15-13. Michael slowed the game right down from there on to take control and moved Moises around the court which saw Moises make one too many errors. Michael took the remaining games 15-9, 15-11 and a very close 16-14. A match that could have gone either way had Moises not drained himself playing a match the day before.

2nd string: Sean Vs Jack
Sean always gets a bit of an advantage Vs right handers, added to Sean's form and game has improved this season seeing him take valuable points. This proved to be the case winning the 1st Vs Jack Wright, 15-11, then ensued a fast and furious match! Cut and thrust from both players saw some spectacular kills and volleys, but Jack's finesse at the front of the court saw him finish off Sean 15-12, 15-8 and 15-7. 

1st string: Liam Vs Nathan
The reverse fixture 8 weeks ago saw Nathan Bascom win 3-0 with Liam nowhere near the level required. This time round saw Liam in much better nick, which blunted the physical edge Nathan usually has over his opponents. Liam took the first 16-14, by just keeping himself in the rallies. Those tactics saw Liam take the second 15-8, but a step up in pace from Nathan saw him take the third 15-7. Then efficient play from Liam saw Nathan drawn into errors and take the 4th 15-6 and the match.
