The ladies travelled to Southampton to play Hampshire and Isle of Wight on the 12th June.   Anne Tait and Anne Louis unfortunately lost both singles matches in straight sets .  The doubles pairing of Sara Stott and Linda Knight won their first round match in an exciting third set tie break. In the second round however, both doubles pairs were defeated.  The overall match score was 4.1 to Hampshire and Isle of Wight.
