Lymington Pétanque scored a memorable 4-1 victory over Muscliff Park!
A home match allowed Lymington Petanque to regain the Malcolm Maybee Trophy. Malcolm was a founder member of Lymington Petanque Club and fashioned the trophy for which the two clubs compete on an annual basis.
Lymington won both triples matches, Bev, Chris and Ron prevailing 13-10 over David, Sean and Trevor, while Pat Mike and Jim scored a comfortable 13-5 win over Ann, Graham and Teresa, including a rare 6-point end. In the doubles, Glynis and Harry won 13-8 over Ann and Graham and Jim and Pat had another comfortable 13-6 win against David and Sean. Lymington's one loss was an epic battle for Chris and Ron, who were edged out 11-13 at the death by Teresa and Trevor to record Muscliff's single win.
It was a most pleasant October afternoon and, as always, Muscliff Park were excellent company and fine opposition.

Lymington Pétanque came second to New Milton!
OK that's a nice way to say we lost! Nine members of Lymington Pétanque plus a couple of supporters travelled to an away match with New Milton on 6th June 2022.
Judith and Sheilagh looked on as the Lymington team of Jim, John, Glynis, Glenda, Les, Alec, Pat, Ruth and Ron (left to right) raised their game but to little avail. Great fun in the sunshine nonetheless and for some a welcome drink afterwards in the pub opposite the terrain.
