Final Ladders for Autumn 2018

(Note: C Sp ladder has been adjusted after first issue because of usage of a player considered to have strengthened Lum Reserve. 5 points awarded to Whites Lane Mulgrave. No effect on final ladder positions.)

Gents,

I consider all who attended on Wednesday, and there were lots, enjoyed a very good Grand Final day aided by near perfect playing conditions. Even the sunshine was appropriately subdued!

Great tennis with the A Reserve being its usual intense, high standard & entertaining contest but the B Special match between the different Frogs residing in Wheelers Hill, not being far behind. Perhaps a little less GF tension brought out the best in them.

Well done to all participants on the day.

 

Grand Final results played 20th June 2018

A Res	Glen Waverley Stars 4 - 37 defeated Burden Park 2 - 28
B Sp 1	Wheelers Hill Tree Frogs 3 - 43 defeated Wheelers Hill Southern Frogs 3 - 38	[Tree Frogs jumped their opposition by winning the first 3 sets]
