Champions Surbiton welcome Hampstead & Westminster for their first home game of the new season.

Both teams were in a goal scoring mood last week with Surbiton scoring seven against Oxted and Hampstead & Westminster scoring five against East Grinstead. 

This was bettered by Wimbledon, with an 8-4 defeat of Reading, and they take the M4 to Cardiff & Met. 

Old Georgians make a shorter trip to North London to play Southgate.

Reading v Oxted and Beeston v East Grinstead sees all teams looking to get points on the board after week one losses.  

Brooklands MU host Holcombe no doubt hoping for better weather after their game with Southgate fell foul of torrential rain last Saturday. That match will be replayed on Sunday October 5.
