THPod 3.07: Milford Tennis rising, Apsley divisions taking shape

Send us Fan MailMilford Tennis made a big splash at the 2026 Hampshire & Isle of Wight tennis awards, leading us to wonder if they are on the ride in Hampshire.

Thornden slapped down Warsash in the end, while ruthless Riverside are now up and running. The toughest contests were in Division Four, however, where two 150+ game fixtures were played out in the baking heat of May 30. We’re now on YouTube: Find future and archive show clips on YouTure using the handle @tennishampshirepodcast, including Robin’s explanation for how scoring works in Portsmouth’s leagues. Send us your thoughts for (or about!) the show:[email protected]/THPODFollow us at:Instagram @thampshirepodTikTok: hampshiretennispodFacebook: The Tennis Hampshire Podcast
