Such a pleasure to come back here and play with the guys who initiated me to the sport.
The level is substantially higher than in London, and they have a good group of say 15 players who are really good and consistent, plus maybe 5-6 guys who are just really very very strong (Adam, Zach, Doug, Paul, Chombo and a few others).
BUT
I think that within a few months London will be able to give them serious competition. All we need is to get used to bigger and faster courts. The only one that comes close to The Pit (their court) is the Bermondsey banked court I think. Long and closed on all sides. We should play there more (saturdays there instead of NE? or weekdays in the evening as it is floodlit?)
Anyway looking forward to TROUNCING you all with my new New York moves when I come back.
Play well and fast.
