Event: Bush 6 Calophylla Long OY
 

H1 at Calophylla. Craig was trying to convince me to do the H2 or H3 because of the thick and prickly bush, but it wasn't as bad as I expected from what he said. Was not super focused, but was aware of it enough to control it and keep my place pretty much the whole way around. Went the long way around through the big clearings for #2, #7 and #10. No big mistakes, but I lost a bit of time on #4 drifting to the left a bit, and on #8 where I came in too high.

H1 - Splits

Pennants for UWA Men's Open Division 1 vs Peppermint Grove. Peppermint Grove was bottom of the ladder, since none of their good players had been playing, but today they all showed up. I was initially only supposed to play 2 doubles matches, but Josh Blundell-Williams forfeited after a set in his singles, so I had to play the 3rd doubles as well. Played pretty well, especially my serve was a lot better than my last pennants match. Me and Archie beat Brendan and Narayan (singles 1&2 for Peppy Grove), which was a good win for us.

Me/Zac lost to Rodrigo/Narayan 3-6 2-6
Me/Ockert lost to Rodrigo/Brendan 4-6 4-6
Me/Archie beat Brendan/Narayan 6-3 6-4

Rain interrupted Reabold session.

7:30am private lesson at UWA.

Thursday group at UWA, since Simon encouraged me to come and it's supposed to rain a lot this weekend. It was a strong group, and smaller than last year, which was a lot better. Ethan Dunn is back from college and hitting for the group as well. The tennis session stopped at 5:30 due to not having light, so we did some sprints on the grass courts.

Event: Secondary School Championships
 

Schools orienteering champs. Ok for most of the course, but lost about 5 minutes on #8 screwing around near the control. There were a couple of other areas that I couldn't match up confidently, but not enough to cause any significant time loss. Ended up 3:50 behind Aldo and 1:30 behind Isaac.

Hit with Craig at Onslow. I hit with Nico for his lesson for the first 15 minutes since he was having a lesson on the court that we had booked.
