I had mix feelings and doubts before we started playing Beaumaris again last Sat. After all, we only managed to take away the ladies doubles from them during our first meet in a 3-setter. And this time as we had Grandpa J again, obviously it is a goner for the mens and one of the [...]

BRTA: Victory Park vs Monash Uni 21-Nov
You know how sometimes when you hatch an “evil plot” and somehow you get “punished” in a certain way for it, well I reckon that’s what we got over the weekend against Victory Park. In our team of 6, there are 2 players (namely one from each sex) who are weaker than the rest. Thus [...]

When it rains, it pours… Literally for most of last week
The weather last week was really shitty and grey – its like the gates of heaven suddenly decide to open and down us with showers or the heavy clouds held on too much and needed to explode. That was good for the dams as we need the all the water we can store for Summer, [...]

New Racket & Accessories and an awesome news!
Yesterday Yong and I had to go back to SportsMart in Moorabin because I had to return the demo racket. I was in no minds at all during the journey about getting a new racket there and then. Oh I and forgot to mention, when I was there the last week, there was this sales [...]
