Jaguar Trumped Audi

Jaguar ran out winners in the first division final of Mackay Table Tennis Tuesday night fixtures last week.

The Jaguar team of Steven Whiting, Anne Sheridan and Lee Brake beat the Audi combination of Andrew McHugh, Duncan Treloar and Janice Kent 6-4.

Andrew led the Audi with a strong win over Steven, but Jaguar then reeled off four wins in succession to take control of the final.

Lee’s five-game win over Janice (5, -11, 7, -6, 8) was pivotal, and wins by Anne and Steven over Duncan and a doubles win by Anne/Steve over Andrew/Duncan put them in the box seat.

Anne and Steven finished off the win with tight victories over Janice.

The second division final went to Fiat (Delma Knight, Andrea Nicholson and Duncan Sheridan) over Nissan (Stirling Bowater, George Camilleri and Val Austin) as both Stirling and Val were ill and unable to play.

However, Coral Morgan and Tiffany Camilleri stepped in to make up a scratch team with George, and the result was a series of tight games.

The competition now breaks for the school holidays and will resume after the break.
