CURTC took a couple of trips down the A1 over the weekend to play at Hatfield House. On the Sunday it was the turn of the Club Team. We were welcomed by their Pro James Law and Chair/Fixtures person, Steve Brewerton who was doing the catering but not playing…. Our team struggled valiantly (3 matches were lost in the third set, including 2 by a score of 6-5) but alas only Guy Kirk and David Hope got over the line before their opponents. As a result, CURTC came out second best by a score of 1-4 in HHTC’s favour. Nonetheless some great tennis was enjoyed on Hatfield’s splendid court and hopefully we will do better on our Home ‘turf’ next year!
