Fri 27 May 2016 - SWF 'B' League v Exeter (Played at Cornwall CC)
Cornwall v Exeter
Cornwall "B" League hosted Exeter in the first match of the season.
There had been heavy rain the previous night and the dreaded swish stick had to be put into use!!
Fortunately the whole day turned out to bathed in glorious sunshine.
Rhona and Ron got off to a good start by winning the doubles 14-10 whilst Peter Dexter also won his singles match 14-10. Dorianne however was beaten by John Crowley 14-8.
A break for lunch which was prepared by Jenny Burrows was a jolly occasion.
The afternoon was won by Ron and Rhona while both Peter and Dorianne floundered.
However the results gave Cornwall a win by 4 games to 3.
After tea and cake Exeter departed defeated but in good spirits.
Final Score: Cornwall 4 Exeter 3
