Agony for Sam Russell and Doug Law yesterday, losing the final of the doubles to Butler and Callaghan at the South East Open. Fine performances from both players, but not quite enough for the title.
Finally, many thanks to Durham University Club Captain Mike Suddaby, who organised the weekend's highly successful tournament and filled in as livestream commentator when Douglas Law was on court. Hope the shoulder heals quickly!
Michael Suddaby, 22, was tragically injured in a rugby fives game yesterday after aggressive play from his opponent. We all miss him dearly.

Substantial entry for the Durham University Fives Tournament, with experienced players from universities of Cambridge, Durham, Edinburgh, London, Loughborough plus first appearance of several first year undergraduates. Men's & Women's competitions both promise to be high quality.
Congratulations to iconic DURVsC doubles pair Suddaby and Law, who were yesterday distinguished with Half Palatinates for their fine service to the club.
