We won our seventh match yesterday 2-1 and that gave us the league championship. We had 7 weeks of competition. Each week we played 3 matches so a team could get a total of 21 points if they won all their matches each week. We started out 3-0 and then for the next 6 weeks we won 2 of the 3 matches. We went into the match yesterday against the second place team having to win 1 of the 3 matches for the championship. I felt we could win all 3 but on court #3 they played a first set tie breaker, a second set tie breaker and then a match tie breaker and lost. It certainly was fun to win it all in our second year of playing.
The winter season starts January 16th and that will be a new and tough challenge. There will be more teams and better teams so it will be fun to see what happens. We played in 86 degree temps yesterday and it was HOT on the court. It is a 60 and over league with my team ages ranging from 65-82.
We had a fun party after our match yesterday. Burgers, brats, potato salad and beans. The guys had a great time.
We are having very warm temps here. Sunday we set a record high for the date with 86 and I think the normal high is about 76. I have seen the - numbers in much of the country the last few days and I have no complaints.
Today will be for cleaning up the house, Terry doing PT, me seeing the Dr. about my foot and then some running around and oh I will play tennis at 10:30.
Hard to believe that we are 5 days away from Christmas Day.
I have a sip of FP left but it is cold.
