Report
A match played in an excellent spirit, outside on hard courts as the best
of three sets. Simon and Justin took an early lead in breezy conditions, leading
4-0 in the first set, but John and Jasper responded by winning the fifth game.
Despite a close 6th, CSSC London won the first set 6-1.
More water during the interval to rehydrate the second set, produced the same
score as the first. CSSC London’s strong serves and consistent powerful
ground strokes won the day.
Results
CSSC London won in straight sets, 6-1, 6-1
