Even though the sun shone on a glorious Sunday morning, only two matches survived the last month of wet weather one in Division One and Three.
Chineham went down 8-2 to lively visitors New Park Rangers, who racked up a Division One league double.
Charlie Hart scored four, Ben Blackwell, Lucas Freer, Simon Harrison and Nathan Barlow singles for Rangers.
A sunny Sunday morning saw Hartley Sunday return to league action following an enforced break due to the weather.
Minutes in and defender Darryl McKeown slotted home quickly followed by Ryan Bray.
A goal from Callum Hart, a brace from Ryan Stanley and a hat-trick from Shane Deakin saw the first half out with only some top drawer goal keeping by Royals’ goalkeeper kept the score in single figures 8-0.
The second half saw player manager Billy Mullen make his debut scoring two out of the 12 shots he had, with full credit again to the Royals goalkeeper.
Royals had a couple of shots but Henry Pickup safely deflected over the bar and was by far the quieter of the two goalkeepers.
Deakin scored his second hat-trick to see the game out 13-0.
Without question this was the best disciplined and good natured fixture of the season, a little one sided but all credit to Royals.
From Hampshire Royals point of view they played well against a very good side in the Division Three leaders, putting in a better performance than the score suggests.
