Our ‘Higher or Lower’ League is keeping up some ‘friendly’ competition between clubs whilst there are no goalball tournaments!
In Round 3, an impressive score of 17 from Kerry O’Brien helped maintain Merseyside Sharks considerable lead at the top of the table. Also hitting double figures were Charlie Brown, with a score of 12 to move Cambridge Dons into 2nd place, and Karina Lang who scored 10 to move Winchester into joint 4th place (with Fen Tigers). Despite a good score of 8 from Joe Scott, London Elephants have slipped a place to 3rd.
At the other end of the table, Georgina Hollinshead from Derbyshire Ducks also scored 8 which has resulted in Lancashire Lions now sitting at the bottom after Amjad Khan only managed to score 1. At least this was a marginally better performance than Amber Whaley from South Yorkshire and Charlie Woodhead from Scarborough who both scored a big fat zero!
A special mention to Tom Lancaster from New College Worcester who had the added pressure of all his teammates watching on as he took part in the challenge during a full school assembly! He scored a respectable 6.
