Congratulations to our 3 D Grade teams who all won their respective Semi Finals and will now line up in the Grand Final this weekend. After the first weekend of the finals got washed out, all teams come back last Sunday to finish their already started matches. Other sections have already finished the season, so we are hoping the weather stays good this weekend so all matches can be completed.
Below is a summary
- D Grade 1: Adam Wallace, Thomas Andrewartha, George Nanos and Vincent Chen. Finished 2nd on the ladder and defeated 3rd placed Burwood in the semi final. The boys had to find a replacement player as George was unavailable. Vincent Chen stepped up from D3 and handled the pressure beautifully. The boys had a tight 5 sets to 1 victory with all the sets at least going to 6-4. It was a great effort from the boys who have made their first Grand Final appearance as a team.
Grand Final: Away match Vs Syndal. - D Grade 4: Declan O’Shea, Teli Katis, Emily Smith and Olivia Smith. Finished 2nd on the ladder and defeated the other MCC Glen Iris team 4 sets 2 and by 6 games. Both teams had played each other 3 times during the season, with every match going down to the wire. The Semi Final was no exception with the result coming down to the last set of matches. Both teams have had a great season.
Grand Final: Away match Vs Dingley. - D Grade 6: Tanna Sawford, Michael Ball, Roger Liu and Georgia Kaminis. Finished 2nd on the ladder in their first season and defeated Mayfield Park 6 sets to 0 and 36 games to 7. It was an outstanding performance from our newly formed team, winning all 6 matches extremely convincingly. It’s great to see our newest team make the Grand Final and we wish them all the success in the coming seasons.
