Wackers 1 line up of The Wine Cask and The Yuppie traveled to Club Macabi, to take on the father and son team of Anton and Brett. On arrival and after viewing the league ladder on the notice board it was discovered that Wackers 1 had clawed their way back up to the top of the league and were enjoying a half a point margin over the other Macabi team.
The first set of doubles was all Wackers as they steamrolled a shell shocked Bondi team 6/1.
The Yuppie then produced his best form for some time in a devastating demolition of the lad 6/1. The youngster played some great tennis and has improved out of sight but our Yuppie had the ball of a string and thrilled the packed crowd with some testosterone laden drives and deft touch.
The Wine Cask ran into an experience player who's flat forehand and sliced backhand were something that he had never encountered before and he trouble to find his rhythm and range and he did not manage to break his opponent's serve going down 6/5. Full marks to Anton for using his head to craft out a surprise victory.
The last doubles was tighter but our heroes were always in control running out 6/3 winners.
6 points to Wackers 1 on the day.
Wackers 2 teaming of Order In The Court and The Rooster took on a tough ESTC team at home. After losing the first doubles 5/6 and Order then going down 1/6 in a tough one to a tough opponent with a big forehand.
The Rooster tried his best to win his singles but his opponent, Son Of Tinto, was red hot on the day and we went down 2/6. Our lads showed great Wacker spirit to fight back and win the last set 6/3 and claim a valuable point for the day.
Wackers 3 all stars, The Slammer and Boom Boom Brett reputation is such that they scared their opposition, ESTC 13 into not turning up. The revised rules see that we only receive 4 points instead of the possible 7 however.
Wackers 4 team of Uri Geller and Sergi Bubka had a tough day at the office going down 4 sets to love to a gun UNSW team at home.
They rallied hard to be within grasp of the last set but went down 5/6 to their experienced opponents.
