Roehampton beat Bowdon in a tightly contested final on Cheltenham's tricky end of season lawns. They led 2-1 at lunch after winning the doubles 2-0 and shared bottom matches. The afternoon saw the matches split 2-2 with Nick Yates winning a comfortable last game against David Cornes to secure the trophy. Nigel Matthews was unlucky to finish on the losing side winning both his matches with some smooth hoop running.

Many thanks to Cheltenham for hosting and particularly to Debo for cooking a delicious chicken lunch.
