A hot sticky day on Sunday as we hosted the home match against Surrey Downs in the 2019 season of the Surrey Hills League.

Slight delay to the match report... Captain Wayne was threatening to do next week when he's back at work... so I'll lob in a very, very abbreivated one.
After last week's mauling away at Regiate Hill in the Surrey Hills, we hosted them for the return match last Sunday.
