This was 11th (bottom) versus 7th in the league table. Despite having just two wins from their opening twelve matches, Hiltingbury knew a win tonight would lift them two places up the table. However, it wasn’t to be. They went 0-1 down within a minute of the start and Romsey doubled their lead midway through the half, as they looked to be coasting to an easy win. Hiltingbury did pull it back to 1-2, but the two goal lead was restored before halftime and Romsey rounded off the scoring when they made it 1-4 on the hour mark.
The cage had no spectator viewing area, but the match officials had no problem allowing watching from inside the fence.
