- "Hard-fought, competitive game! Good to meet you, mate. " -- Jack
Player Comments:
- "Very enjoyable match. Exchanged breaks of serve in the first set until I managed to hold. Second set was tighter and looked like the match would go to 3 sets. However I managed to break and hold to win Some great points and I felt I needed to win several points at least three times" -- Paul

Player Comments:
- "Really enjoyable match. Mav started really well in the first set, great serving and he is quite the shot maker, made some great returns and jumping backhand winners. There were some nice rallies throughout, I started to find more rhythm in the second and third set, although there was a crucial point at the third set when a lucky net cord went my way at deuce. Well played Mav!" -- Lee
Player Comments:
- "Close match in tricky wet conditions. Thanks for the game Mav" -- Anant
Player Comments:
- "Tough match under cool and slightly wet conditions. Some great points and rallies all round. Anant started the match very well with some great serves throughout, and the set could have easily gone his way. Second set there were quite a few deuce games despite the scoreline. Thanks for the game Anant!" -- Lee

Reveal CommentLee Giet bt Kim Marshall (Jun 10) 6-2, 6-7 (6-8), 6-4Player Comments:
- "A really great match played over several sessions. I started off the match quite strongly in the first set before Kim found her rhythm and showed great mental resilience despite the pressure to take a close second set after I went a break up at 4-2. I think both of our levels dropped slightly in the third set and it really could of gone either way. Really well played Kim and best of luck for the rest of your games!" -- Lee

Player Comments:
- "Third time lucky for Abhi and I after a couple of rearranged matches. We managed to get a last minute cancelled court at Burgess Park to just squeeze our match in before the deadline. I'm so glad we did! Abhi is such a lovely guy and a great player. We had a really closely contested match that could have gone either way and was lots of fun." -- Nick
Player Comments:
- "Really good game in which my friend Oliver made me run (a lot!) and play at my best. Really enjoyed the game, it wasn't easy at all as Oliver always knew how to challenge me and where to put the next ball. " -- Nito
Match of the Group:
Reveal CommentStephen Alsobrook bt Oliver Russell (Aug 2) 6-3, 0-6, 7-6 (8-6)Player Comments:
- "Great back and forth match with Oliver. After a strong start I couldn't manage to get anything going in the second set, but then we played really close and evenly all the way through the 3rd set and the tiebreak to finish it" -- Stephen
Player Comments:
- "Oliver and I played a fun match by the Imperial War Museum. Oliver started both sets really well but I was able to fight back and win them both in the end." -- Nick
Player Comments:
- "Very competitive game - Gary had two match points but he didn't finally make it. I was lucky to win the last set in the tie Break (7-4)." -- Nito
Player Comments:
- "A good match on a slightly overcast but very muggy morning at burgess park. Gavin actually pointed out that both sets followed the same pattern. He opened the serving and held his first and third service games. I managed to hold my serve throughout and break on Gavin’s second and fourth service games. " -- Nick
Player Comments:
- "We got lucky with some great weather to start the day and then had the pleasure of a great back and forth match. I got out to a strong start in the first set, before Gavin came back and tied it up with some strong play in the second. He had me running around a lot, but I managed to survive and was happy to get my first win of the league here!" -- Stephen
Player Comments:
- "What a match in the blistering Kennington sun! The first set was really straight forward, I was settled and served well, Nito wasn’t and didn’t. The second set was almost the opposite story with both Nito and the sun firing up! The third set was totally epic and a real battle, particularly my service game at 2-2 where we had massive rally after massive rally. It was a pivotal point in the match that I was able to just squeeze out the game and then battle for the final set and match. Could have easily have gone either way this one!" -- Nick
Player Comments:
- "Thoroughly enjoyable game even if it was a little tough getting up in time for it after England's semi-final victory! The score in the first set reflects the closeness of the match better than the score in the second. Every game in both sets was close with many going to deuce, only the peculiarities of the tennis scoring system make the two sets look different on paper. " -- Gavin
Player Comments:
- "In a close match, as ever with Oliver, one break in each set decided it. It started to rain fairly heavily just before we got going but we persisted and were rewarded by a thoroughly enjoyable match and better weather by the end of it. This wasn't our first match in the rain and probably won't be our last. But, with that much water around the balls were heavy and didn't bounce as high as normal. That seems to have worked to my advantage. " -- Gavin
Player Comments:
- "Good match in the morning on Tanner street courts beside the dogs meet up! Ultimately this match result went down to difference in service, Reem was the better and more consistent player in the first set and was unlucky not to take it. " -- Nick
Player Comments:
- "Nick and I played a nice match in Burgess park on a overcast but dry day. It was a very close match even though it doesn't necessarily reflect in the score-line. We both hit some decent forehand shots and serves but also both made quite a couple of unforced errors. Overall it was very enjoyable and we will definitely play again." -- Julian
Player Comments:
- "Very nice playing with Abhi! Super nice guy with a strong backhand slice :)! Looking forward to play again." -- Julian
Player Comments:
- "This was a really fun match with both of us in similar situations where we're well out of practice (over 4 years out for both) and trying our best to find form of old! We started fairly evenly but I soon lost the plot at 2-2 trying to hit shots I simply didn't have in me and very quickly Stephen was up 2-5. Being out of contention for the set seemed to sort me out and I started attempting a more reasonable level of tennis and somehow pulled the scoreline back and eventually won on the tie break. While the 2nd set reads a bit less exciting on paper it was still closely contested and we both played better tennis in this set with us finally hitting winners instead of unforced errors." -- Nick
Player Comments:
- "Very nice match with Reem. Unfortunately conditions weren't the best as it was drizzling all the way through." -- Julian
Player Comments:
- "Very nice match with Oliver on a very hot afternoon! Good luck for the next matches!" -- Julian
Player Comments:
- "Nito won 2Sets - 0 Sets" -- Nito
Player Comments:
- "Was very nice to play with Stephen and it was a lot closer than the scoreline suggests. Very nice guy and we will certainly play again." -- Julian

- "An evenly-matched match! I’d have loved it to go to a third set but given that we finished in the nick of time, perhaps it’s just as well it didn’t! Well played, Nicolas." -- Kathryn

We were tied at 3-3 and I was receiving from Holly's serve when we had to stop. The score when we stopped was 0-30 (holly serving 0 - Nicolas receiving 30)." -- Nicolas
