Pair of dominant displays from Spalding Water Polo in Herts League

The other goals came from Damian Makwana (5), John James (3), Chris Barham (2), Phil James (2), Ed Martin (2), Tom Marsters, Matt Papworth, Tim Shields and Calvin Wilson.

The scorers at Hertford were Makwana (6), Martin (4), Barham (2), Papworth (2), Wilson (2), John James, Marsters, Nathan Henfrey and Toby Rickett.
