today looked so good on paper with light rain and a 20mph northwest wind, so we set the court up in the lower field to try and maximize the wind. Now here's the kicker we did get light rain but it a 20mph+ wind straight across the court. This meant loads of line out left so reels where slowed down and a practice day was called. We did our best in the conditions and the four members who turned up stuck with heavy leads to combat the strong side wind. As you can probably guess distances where down and no one wanted to record a cast. So before the heavy rain set in we packed up early and headed home, until next time and we hope the weather is in our favor then.
