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!!!)
