Friday 10th May- Billericay C V Brentwood Home
Result Lost 82-36
On beautiful evening we welcomed a team from Brentwood who were in fact old adversaries from Hutton Poplars with a few extras. While the result was not what we would have liked, it did not reflect some of the good play that Billericay produced which was commented on by the opposition. However it was enjoyable and gave some newer players more experience against seasoned players.
Rink 3 Edith, Bob L, Lynn lost 12-25
Rink 4 Sandra, Bob B, Ian lost 14-25
Rink 5John J, James C, Brian lost 10-32
We will not give up!
