AELTC, London

IC of GB v AELTC

Result: IC of GB 2 – 2 AELTC

Event Date: Friday 16th July 2021

The IC match against the AELTC was once again a very high standard, and was played on the Championship grass courts in blazing sunshine. The IC of GB Team of Emily Arbuthnott, Leyla Ogan, Andy Burgoyne and Hugh Jacques played fantastic tennis in both the doubles and the mixed doubles, with all matches being played in such a sporting way. This was Emily Arbuthnott's IC of GB debut and she played excellently winning both of her matches. The All England Club made us feel so welcome throughout the afternoon and after the match hosted a delicious dinner which our team thoroughly enjoyed. It was a very close resulting in a draw at 2-2.

Thank you as always to the AELTC for being such wonderful hosts for our annual fixture.
