Jim, I have 3 x Friendship 729 rubbers 2 x 2.0mm sponge and 1 x 1.5mm they are brand new, still in their packaging. I've also got a couple of second hand ones, would they be any good to you?

We play your team on Thursday can you bring them along?

Hi Jim no worries I'll bring them along, see you Thursday.

I'd just like to say its excellent to see league reports appearing again. It's something the Ipswich league has been missing for the past few seasons and its great to see them start again. Well Done to whoever is organising them!

Someone left part of their tracksuit at the Suffolk champoinships Sunday week ago, please if you are missing this get in touch.

Aimee when we cleared up we found the ladies singles trophey in the main cuboard, this has been missing for a few years so let me know when you are about and I will try a get it to you.

I would also like to thank Michael Wright for his invaluable help on the day in keeping the event moving and those that got there early and helped set up.

Well done to Ryan and Aimee the two main title winners oh and lets not forget Nigel Hodder who won three titles on the day, the mixed doubles, the mens's doubles and the handicap singles.

At the risk of embarrassing those involved, the league report is being compiled by Mike Wright with assistance from the individual league secretaries. Mark, I know your thanks will be appreciated as these do take those involved time and effort to compile. I hope everyone will find these as interesting as you and I obviously have. Thank you from me too, to Mike and the league secs.

All being well the Britannia Ipswich top 12 will take place at the Britannia club on Sunday the 22nd of November.

It is open to the 12 best players based on Ipswich league averages for last season (listed below)

If you want to take part please let me know by phone or email 07968135602 dosher1970@yahoo.co.uk

Players are sometimes unable to play and this means it is offered to somoneone else, so it's always worth enquiring if you are intrested.

The top 12 places this season are offered to:

Ryan Collins, Jake Colins, Tony West, Andrew Warner, Richard Hutchinson, Gary Young, Nigel Hodder, Charles Fulcher, Wayne Shaw, Malcolm Collins, Andrew Holmes and Michael Wright.

As long as I have a currant number for these players I will be trying to get in touch, otherwise when reading this or on hearing you are entitled to play please confirm ASAP otherwise the place is likely to go.

Even if you can't play it would be good to know so I can offer it to someone else

Many thanks

On Saturday Ryan and Jake represented the IDTTL in the Wilmot Cup held at St Neots. Our boys turned up early and were scheduled to play Northamptonshire second match on. However true to current form, Ryan forgot his bat due, as he said, to his girlfriends dog crapping in a shoe this apparantly made him forget his bat???. Anyway having returned to Stowmarket and back to St Neots still within time our boys eventually lost 3-2. The highlight of the match being ryan trailing 2 games down against Jimmy Walsh (top 50) coming back but eventually loosing 15-13 in the 5th.
Next they played Cambridgshire Jake lost to Martin Grey, Ryan beat kevin Grey in 5, Our boys won the doubles, Kevin then played Jake and conceeded when he got angry with his brother Martin for not coaching him. 'O boy does that ring a bell somewhere'...then ryan beat Martin 3-1.
So in conclusion we came a close second to Northhamptonshire but should progress through to the finals.
Thanks to the IDTTL for sponsoring our boys. Thanks to Ryan for his commitment thanks to jake for coming down from Durham just for this event (nothing to do with seeing Aimee of course!!!)
