THE QUEEN'S CLUB V ROYAL THAMES YC CHALLENGE - TENNIS & SAILING

On Sunday 10th April 3 RTYC crews took part in a fleet race against 3 QC crews in the J80s on Queen Mary Reservoir. In perfect conditions of sunshine and light breezes RTYC held off a spirited challenge from QC. Final score RTYC 68 - QC 58.

The following Saturday the same teams played mixed doubles  on the clay courts at The Queen's Club.  This was quite a challenge for our sailors but they rose magnificently to the occasion winning 9 out of 18 matches. The score counting games won was RTYC 60 - QC 66.

So total points were RTYC 128 V QC 124 - RTYC winning by 4 points!

QC then hosted RTYC to a convivial dinner in their Members' Cafe. Both teams were keen to make this an annual event.
