ABC Wasps, away to Oxshott Hotshots on Thu, 31 March

Alex Myles reports:

The Bonhams, Bobby Newberry, Jean Vanstone, Jill and I, played the first game of the NDL Season, as ABC Wasps, away to Oxshott Hotshots on Thursday evening 31 March.

We started the season on a suitably low note being thrashed eight games to one. It was an uphill struggle.

We turned up expecting to play Boules, but we found that we were required to play Roules ( pardon the pidgin French ). We had just started to master the technique by the last games, to the extent that Derek and Jean Bonham managed a 12-6 timed-out win and therefore share our " Man of the Match Award".

It was all very friendly and hospitable, but we will do our damnest to have our revenge when the Hotshots return to Kirdford to play our sort of game.
