MBA: RTB (Away) 26/08/23
Two games left to play and Blackwood are not out of the woods. So it was with some confidence that we travelled to bottom club RTB. However, RTB did not have a 1st team game so it was with some disappointment that we saw some county players and some national champions take the green against us.
In an unfair scenario Blackwood lost 12/2.
Top rink gaining our only two points was, Trevor Hutch, Haydn, Oliver and Owen winning by 22/10.
