The 2nd Leg of the annual winter friendly took place at Caerleon on Sunday 9 February. The first Leg at Monkstone before Christmas was a very tight affair with Caerleon leading by 2 points at the end. It seemed that there was all to play for and Monkstone were optimistic of wresting the cup back from Caerleon.
On a fine but blustery day things didn’t quite turn out as might have hoped. I was going to point out the highlights but there weren’t many other than the excellent pointing from Sharon who was a late replacement for Vickie who was not well. In the opening singles, which she had never played competitively before, she took Tansy Mayfield to the wire before going doe 11-13 at the end.
So its just well done to the few Monkstone winners and congratulations to Caerleon, winners overall by 75pts to 39, in retaining the cup for another year.
