Mike Yam did his part, silver for Men’s A Single on Sunday and got POLYU 2 points, losing to a 2,000 point rated HKU player/coach Jacky Fok (MTTC). He was rusty and anxious in early matches but played a much better 3rd game against Jacky.
Bill Ip’s MX team was placed in a tough group and did not advance. Good luck to fast recovery from hand injury. Need you!
Chris Tam showed up direct from airport to watch the finals of Men’s and Ladies Single between his HKU & my POLYU (captained by Sandy Chu of Mung Sang whom we will face 8/10).
HKU beat reigning champion POLYU by 1 point overall and reversed last year’s final results. Got HK Cup.
Alex Lam (was from WYHK, I heard) played MD A Final (beat HKU Sidney’s MD team in 5 sets) but lost bad against BU’s Chung.
Officiating was good and cheer groups loud as expected.
Alex Pang (whom we will face at JS 8/10 from Chung Chuk San) won B MD Final for POLYU..
La Salle had Danny (#1 player) & Eric (#3 player) as spectators and watched both Mike & Bill played.
Most of Ying Wah’s teams for 8/10 was playing.
