Francis again gave us a flying start winning the 1st game. But then the momentum was lost when we lost the next 3 games, trailing 1-3
But when Francis, Varuna and the doubles combination of Varuna and Joanna won the next 3, we were only 1 game from victory. Alas, only to lose the final 2 games, resulting in a 4-5 lost. Francis, Viyada, Joanna and Varuna represented SUNS E.
What a narrow lost!

Francis, Joanna, Varuna played singles with Viyada filling in for all the doubles. The singles matches were evenly matched, resulting in 3-3. However we won two of the doubles quite well. Final result edging to a bare 5-4 victory.
Good effort once again.
 

Due to COVID-19, the competition has recently
restarted with revised schedules - July 2020

Francis gave a winning start, winning his singles easily. But then we lost the next 2 and trail 1-2. Having just lost his doubles match, Varuna made amends by winning his next singles in 4 games. 2-2
That provided the momentum for our team. We won all the remaining 5 matches, some hard fought, to a worthy opponent. SUNS Team: Francis, Varuna, Viyada and Joanna.

Congratulations!
