NUVOC Women v Troon PA - match report

Oh Dear Oh Dear Oh Dear – How the Women NEARLY (note Gentlemen, nearly) Snatched Defeat from the Jaws of Victory…..

25-21, 25-11, 16-25, 25-27, 17-15

After problems finding a venue (thanks Gerry for getting us one!) and then the Div 3 Mens match being cancelled by the opposition (P3 on a roll – 3 matches in a row now !), we had a bad feeling about this match……. Totally justified in the end.

Race Night Report

That’s it – done and dusted for another year (or two! - it was a bit stressful) and despite the precarious run up to it (you wouldn’t believe the shenanigans going on behind the scenes!) it was another successful evening.

District League - Sunday 9 November

We now have five confirmed teams for the league. They are Hornets,NUVOC 90, Peebles, Jets and Edinburgh University. Heriot Watt have not returned my emails and so I will have to rule them out.

Both halls are booked from 11am, but it will take a while to get the nets up. I have got Peebles playing in the drill hall first to allow them to set the net up (as only Wattie knows how!).

The schedule is as follows:

In the city of disco-very second division clash started a bit lack lustre but with encouragement from balcony and the opportunity of tea and sannies the boys were spurred onto their first win in the league. Dundee II 2-3 NUVOC II. 26-24, 16-25, 25-19, 13-25, 10-15

The divsion one tie between Dundee I and NUVOC I looked as if the boys were in for a bit of a doing losing the first set 25-18. However, a few choice words of inspiration seemed to kickstart the action, the boys managed to win the next two sets and got to match point in the fourth unable to convert the boys tripped out defeated but not without a fight. Dundee I 3-2 NUVOC I (25-18, 19-25, 23-25, 26-24, 15-11)
