It was a good learning experience since we have several players who have never played before. They have had two matches and 10 on-court practices and this was our first match of the season. And we have had five on-court practices, so we did respectably. I think we can take at least a few matches off them next time.

Livestock farmers come to an event like this because they want to gain from the practical experience of others, and gain the kind of knowledge that helps them to be good neighbors and to grow their business at the same time.
