All the players plus Fiona, the organiser
Having a very late dinner afterwards at Pizzeta Republic
Last night was a special night, as for the first time the Bailrigg Badminton Club is having a friendly match with Liverpool Malaysians during their club night. It was supposed to be 4 doubles (i.e. 8 players) from each team and each double will play 4 matches with 2 sets each, rally point system. However, due to last minute withdrawal, our team are short of one player so some of us had to play more than 4 matches to cover the missing player.
In the Bailrigg team, they have 3 English, 1 Welsh, 1 Indonesian, 1 Chinese and 2 Malaysians. As for us, there are 6 Malaysians and 1 Bruneian. In the first round, Liverpool Malaysians managed to beat Bailrigg with 12 sets won against 4. In the second round, where players swapped their partners, Bailrigg managed to beat Liverpool Malaysians with 9 sets won against 6. I guess fatigue has started to creep in among our players as some of us had to play extra sets.
It was an entertaining friendly match and I hope there will be more like this in the future.
