2nd & 3rd August 2010


Bowdon's Ian Lines, David Walters, Andrew Winn and Ken Cooper were members of a North West Federation
team of seven that played the visiting Australians (the Mac team plus Greg and Malcolm Fletcher). The lawns at Southport
were in good condition, though quite green and easy after all the recent rain. Day 1 started well for the NW Fed with two wins in the doubles, but
the Australians began to assert themselves in the afternoon singles and continued into Day 2.

The star performance from the NW Fed was Dave Nick (Crake Valley), with a win in the doubles
and 4 wins out of 5 in the singles.

Southport provided excellent lunches and afternoon teas, which were enjoyed by all the players and about 30 spectators.
