This was a special occasion for Area Two when we were able to play a mixed match with clubs throughout the area allowing players from Addlestone Victory Park, Byfleet, West Byfleet, Ottershaw, MidSurrey, Malden Manor, Ember and Southey to participate together as one team rather than against each other as in district competitions.
