The Hardwick "Round Britain Chase" Challenge Salver

Jul 23, 2010
The Mjolnirs have taken up that challenge!

Last year the Hardwick Committee offered a Challenge to any 4 players to play an hour of doubles at every club in Britain and beat the current time of 5 days and 6 hours.

This club of travelling rackets players is looking to add the Salver to their overflowing trophy cabinet and so at 05:30 on Wednesday 11th August, James Coyne, Chris Wilson, Ali Gourlay and Dom Wright will play their first match at Falkland Palace. Playing 5 or 6 courts a day we hope to play the final match at Queen's on Saturday 14th at 18:00. It’s quite an aggressive schedule but we hope that our efforts will be rewarded by plenty of donations to the Multiple Sclerosis Society.

Sponsorship details can be found at www.justgiving.com/chasing-britain or by contacting Dom Wright

The Robertson family last year raised £4k for the Society and we aim to match or exceed that this year.

Spectators at any of the matches will be greatly appreciated, particularly at Queen's where there will be a big party in the Dedans afterwards.
