Highs and Lows

Skittles last Monday saw the Jockeys take on one of the other teams from the Perry Street Club in the Nomination League. We played the Club Originals and lost in very low scoring match.
We could only manage a total of 165 and our hand was littered with ducks. I managed a creditable 32 with a one in my hand but we eventually lost when our opposing captain hit a spare with his last three balls to win the game.
On Wednesday it was back to the Hustlers and the Club League with a match against the Farmers. After the first two hands it was really close with the points shared at 2 each and us 7 pins down. We turned it around on the third hand hand though to be 5 pins up and four - two ahead on points.
On our last hand however we went crazy and hit a tremendous 110 to win by 42 pins and 14 points to two.
Our rivals the Outlaws were also playing that night and managed to scrape a two pin win against the Skylarks but dropping points in the process so their lead over us in the league is now only 5 points.
