LATEST MATCH REPORTS...

So our 1st game of the new season was against the team that finished above us as regional runners-up last year.

There were a few new faces in the B team with Connor Hewson, Memhet Tango and Tony Griffin all being drafted into the mens squad fresh from the youth team. Shane O'Reilly also made his debut for the B team, as well as Adam Coppen retuning to the County set-up after taking a season break.

Would of..... Could of..... Should of.....

That sums up how I think most of us felt after our opening game of the new season.

Would have.....

Before the game if you said we was going to draw with the team that beat us twice last year, as well as win the National KO cup the week after we probably would have settled for a draw.

Could have.....

We could have lost this match by quite a big scoreline by giving our opponents another start, firstly going 4-0 down before we got our 1st frame on the board, then after going 11-8 up only winning 1 of the next 8 frames to trail 16-12.

Should have.....

After another great fightback by the team we probably should have won this match. We went 20-17 up but with a victory in our sights, we only managed to win 2 of the last 7 frames to draw 22-22.

My Man-of-the-match goes to Will Gayler, winning 4/4.
