Performance Ping Pong

Having the afternoon to ourselves 3 of us scooted up to Godby to see some Ping Pong and by fluke managed to happen upon the final of the team event with Jersey vs Gotland starting within 5 minutes!
Not having seen the Ping Pong players in action before, and having got to know a few of them through the Oakfield training sessions, I was keen to see what prowess they had. There was some awesome stuff going on - I wasn't disappointed - such reactions and speed!
The match went the way of Gotland in the end, but no their initial 2-0 lead was annuled to a 2-3 Jersey lead, then to 3-3 and a final score of 4-3 Gotland. Unlucky Chaps - but you must be well happy with that result overall!
Rent-a-crowd were in action again, and our 3-man antics had the Jersey Ping Pong supporters in stitches for some of it, and holding their ears at others! It's amazing how loud those things can be made to be!! Is this ringing in my ears normal?!?!...
