Matches to be played during w/c 2nd November 2009. Home team captains to arrange the fixture by offering the opponents 2 dates, at least one of which is in the cup week.
The first round draw has just been posted on the district website, and throws up some difficult matches for our home teams, with Nigel’s and Jeff’s teams pitted against 1st division opponents, and John’s against 2nd division ones. The A team seems to have the easiest draw, away to 3rd division opposition.

Alan
The club’s run of two consecutive matches without defeat ended spectacularly when the D team lost ignominiously on Thursday. A bit OTT?
Maybe so, but North Meols ‘C’ did claim a 6-4 victory, with the experience of Les Lord and a good performance by Andy Stuart forming a solid foundation for their win. Southport’s Tom Banton got his money’s worth, coming back from 2-0 down to beat Bill Dawson 11-2 in the fifth set. Andy Hickey had an easy win over John Hepple, but John and Bill steadied their nerve to take an unexpected doubles win off the visitors. Southport left wondering where it had all gone wrong!
The new season got under way this week, and the club has yet to lose a match! Mind you, only 2 have been played, one resulting in a draw, and the other had a winning margin enhanced by the opponents being 1 player short.
The A team held St Teresa’s D to a draw, with Colin Fyles and Jim Irving winning both their singles and Dave Williams picking up the other point. The doubles was a weakness last season, and remains a weakness.
The B team, with three substitutes, got off to a flying start when Formby HT E turned up with only 3 players. Paul Lunan then raced to a quick win against Paul Oakes, whilst Ron Makin pulled one back for the visitors in a close game against Dai Davies. Alan Nolan and Tom Taylor won their solitary singles games, and Dai Davies completed the home team’s scoring with an easy win against Des Logan. Formby then won the only doubles game against Alan & Tom.
The practice nights scheduled for 27th August and 3rd September 2009 have been cancelled because the sports hall at Southport College is unavailable due to student enrolments.
Unfortunately, we have been unable to rearrange the practice sessions at short notice.
