Hammers dig deep and hang on

Hammers 1st  team continued on the road this week with a ‘short’ commute out to Marlborough, for the clubs 2nd fixture of 2024.

Hammers go down in a heartbreaker

On the twelfth day of Christmas, Hammers gave to me… not as much as you wanted, but you’ve already had 11 days’ worth of gifts. You’ll just have to be content with the one point. In a scene reminiscent of the three Magi journeying across the arid Arabian Deserts, from a land far-far away to […]

Hammers Outmuscled in the Mud

Spirits were high after a lovely coach journey down to leafy Camberley, the maddest of dogs putting on a great quiz to entertain the boys and really test our geological knowledge.   Off the coach and into a couple of shoebox freezers to get changed in, the day started to take a downward turn.

Hammers storm back into form

Like every nautical epic, our tale has a terrifying storm, an old miser with one boot and most importantly, Victory! Hammers set sail earlier than usual from the Port of Victoria to face the day’s adversaries. As predicted by Ed’s eerily accurate Navy shipping forecast, storm Kieran was prepared to his worst and the rain […]
