The Hampshire team was:

1 – Conor Doyle

2 – Miles McDowell

3 – Sam Li

4 – David Moakes

5 – Kris Hook

6 – Stephan Grainger

7 – Edward Saunders

8 – Milan Bharadia

Doubles

1 – Miles + David

2 – Conor + Kris

3 – Sam + Ed

4 – Milan + Stephan

Dorset turned up with their full County team, so to win was going to be a tough task, but a fantastic opportunity!

All the singles matches were tight competitive games, just what we needed, and we ended up 4/4 after the singles.  (Great convincing wins at 1 and 2 by Conor and Miles.)

The doubles matches were again extremely competitive with all matches having one team up at some point within each set.  But, sadly we went down 3/1 giving us a 7/5 loss at the end.

It was a great competitive match just what we wanted against a quality Dorset side.                         

Hopefully setting up for some more matches next year.
