SCC in Bath
Cornwall’s top badminton players travelled to Bath at the weekend for the latest round of matches in Badminton England’s Senior County Championships.
Joanna then followed, and played some great badminton to win her singles in two convincing ends, but Daphne, making a comeback after a long absence, was beaten in two by the older ex-international Devonian.
Milo and Joanna, Cornwall’s county champions, battled hard but lost in two at first mixed, and it was left to Guy and Bronwen to save the day. They cruised to victory with tight net play and power against their experienced rivals, to make the overall score a creditable 4-7 to Devon this time.
Again, all the doubles were won by Worcs fairly convincingly, followed by the first mixed which Milo and Joanna found tough going against their best player. But yet again, Guy and Bronwen stepped up and saved the day to end on a positive note, winning their mixed in three exciting ends giving the final score 2-9 to the midlands team.
The team - Milo Semonin (Loughborough), Jack Dyer, Elliot Dyer (Truro), James Whetter, Guy Michell (St Austell), Joanna Vyvyan (Camborne), Daphne Luke, Bronwen Wotton (Bristol), Jess Canfield, Lynda Beer (Callington).
