HONG KONG—The two Hong Kong Football Club teams took advantage of leader Craigengower Cricket Club’s slip at Kowloon Cricket Club to occupy the top two spots of the table.
CCC suffered an 8:0 defeat in the hand of the Police before the Chinese New Year break and held a tiny lead of one point before the game last weekend, Feb 4. They traveled to 2013 champions KCC to try picking themselves up from the recent adversity.
In the game two of CCC’s three skippers, Lee Ka Ho and Kevin Fung, accomplished their missions to marginally edge out their opponents. The team skipped by the reigning Indoor Singles champion Stanley Lai faced a lot of trouble against experienced bowler Danny Ho. Lai lost 23-14 eventually and the match ended 4-4.
The second-placed HKFC-B played Filipino Club at their indoor green and did not face too many problems. They won the game 8-0 and bought their total points to 33, which was enough to leapfrog CCC into the leading position.
