Morning Matches

Mixed fortunes for hosts Cayman in the morning matches as their Vets beat last year's runners-up T&T in the decider, but the men's team lost out 2-3 to Barbados - Cameron Stafford and Mark Chaloner winning at #1 and #2.

Barbados Vets notched up their second win as they beat Bermuda 4-1, and OECS got off the mark with a 3-2 win against Guyana (one-all in matches actually played).

Afternoon Matches

Defending women's champions Barbados started off with a 4-1 won over OECS, for whom Daniela Schumann avenged her semi-final defeat against Karen Meakins, beating the newly-crowned champion 11-9, 11-7, 11-5!

The T&T girls started off even better with a convincing 5-0 win over Jamaica.

Jamaica's men, seeded at #4 despite fielding the top two seeds from the individual event (they finished sixth last year and the rules only allow you to be moved up two places from that) were grateful that men's champion Chris Binnie came through 11-3 in the fifth against Sunil Seth as they went on to win 3-2 against top seeds Guyana.

Evening matches

After the opening ceremony, matches continued with all three Cayman teams in action.

Cayman Vets lost their unbeaten record as they went down 2-3 to OECS, losing out in the decider. In other Vets matches T&T beat Bermuda 3-1 and Jamaica won on points countback against Guyana - the match finished 2-2 with neither team having a W50 player.

Cayman's ladies team recovered from losing the top two strings against Bermuda, Jackie Geils winning the decider at fourth string.

The men were also taken the distance, OECS pegging them back after Cayman's top pair had again won, and once again it was the visitors who took the decider.
 
Team action continues tomorrow, and by the end of the day we should know the semi-final lineups ...
