A hard-fought match on a sunny day at Hurlingham. We broke for lunch with the hosts leading 3-2. Andrew Wise and Toby Toller then both won their second games to give Hurlingham a close victory. Nick Yates, the latest addition to Roehampton's team, deserves a special mention. Although he only took up croquet last November he nearly won his morning singles, then beat Stephen Allen +25 in the afternoon.
