We had only six players - Bing/Andy setting, Zuzana P/Richard middle, Marina/Kathryn (out of position) wing.
We lost the first set. A great come back from 13:22 to lose 23:25. Clearly we needed to start that come back a couple of points earlier. In the first set we were a little scared of their huge middle player. It took us the whole set to realize that he wasn't a forceful hitter nor was he that effective at blocking. Boy he was *huge* though.
Second set 25:14, Third set 25:14.
Great team spirit. Very clear how working as a team (some GREAT covering in sets 2 & 3) kept us from giving away soft points. By staying in those rallies we were still there to win them at the end. Much better then giving away a soft point earlier.
Player of the match - KATHRYN.
Well deserved. Very steady in back court, good covering with some great pick ups, good hitting in attack.
Seven match run unbeaten in the Wiltshire League.
