Riga ladies second team made a good start to life in Div 3 central. A first tough match against Hedley from Essex saw the team loose a close 5 set match - going down 15 -10 in the deciding fifth set. The team bounced back in great style, overcoming Cambridge 2 by 3 sets to 1 with captain Virginia Rennie serving the winning point with a strong serve. Overall a very enthusiastic and committed performance from everyone in the team , great back court cover combining with intelligent hitting and top quality blocking, resulting in a great first win for this new team . Our next match is the cup game on Nov 4th at St. Nicks against Loughborough's second team.
