Business
House League Round Up Thursday
31st July
Tonight saw the final matches of the 2008
season in the Business House league with mixed fortunes for
the Tigers and Alleycats, the Tigers recorded a come from
behind 4 - 4 draw against Property Proprietors whilst the
Alleycats lost 2 - 6 to Stiles UK, this defeat being the ninth
defeat in a row for the Alleycats as they ended the season
poorly. The Tigers finished the season in sixth place whilst
the Alleycats were left languishing in twelfth place, with the

Tuesday
Trios League Round Up Tuesday
29th July
The
Tigers played two matches tonight, starting the evening with
an envelope match against Makem Avit the Tigers were to later
find out that they were given an 8 - 0 walkover as the
opposing team failed to fulfil the fixture, later in the
evening the Tigers took on 4 or More and it was back to the
dismal results with a 2 - 6 defeat, the amount of defeats in
the back half of this season is quite frightening, a sequence
that has seen the team fall from first place to eleventh in
the league standings.
