The match was scheduled to be played on the grass courts but sadly the weather got the better of us and the match was played on the hard courts. The match against Oxford Blues is been a relatively new fixture on the calendar and after some excellent and closely-fought tennis, the Pubs secured a 3-1 victory. This should ensure that we retain the fixture in 2020, as I am sure the students will be keen to avenge the defeat.
Our thanks go to the University in hosting this fixture especially around exam-season.
