Axemen (Roger Gore, Col Barry, David Brown, Lucas Gore ) d Windmills ( Sbig Ciercan, Allan Munro, Brad Muller, Mathew Duncan ) 8/7.
This panned out as a classic final with not only the score line being as close as possible but there were moments where fortunes balanced on single points that ultimately decided the match. Sbig will rue the missing of a sitter put away at 10/9 up in the fifth set in the second doubles that led to a 10/12 loss. This allowed the Axemen a chance to secure victory in the last rubber later in the night and even this was decided in five sets and by a forehand smash by a vastly improving young Lucas. This was a high quality affair and all players felt satisfaction in producing near their best , win or lose.
