INTER REGIONAL CHALLENGE
Saturday, 31st August 2013
CHILTERN V SOUTHERN
A bright sunny day welcomed our visitors from Southern Region to the new facility at Luton Petanque Club. This was a chance to renew acquaintances with our friends from Southern before the inter regional competition starts at Hayling Island, near Portsmouth, on 14th and 15th September.
The teams were evenly matched with Southern fielding a strong squad including their number 1 team for Hayling and, while Chiltern were short of three teams from the top six, the teams stepping in were of a very high standard.
The result was 36 matches of the highest calibre with some great boule being played by both teams.
The result of the match was decided before the final round started but a late surge by Southern, who won the last round 5 – 1, gave respectability to the score.
Final score CHILTERN 20 SOUTHERN 16
