Army tennis secures an Inter Services clean sweep at the All England Club Wimbledon

The British Army have swept the board at the Inter Services Tennis Championships, staged at the All England Club at Wimbledon. 

The championships are regularly staged at Wimbledon as a thank you from the All England Club for the service personnel who carry out stewarding duties during the Wimbledon Championships. 

The Army men have won back the team title that the Royal Air Force claimed last year, with the Army winning a total of 10 rubbers to the RAF's five and the Royal Navy's three.

Army player and number one seed Major Ben Rogers, who recently returned from the Falklands, won the men's individual championships.

In the women's championship, the Army achieved a clean sweep by winning all 12 of their singles and doubles matches to retain their title. 

Army champion and women's number one seed Officer Cadet Milly Wood won both her singles matches to take the women's individual title, beating Leading Naval Nurse Olivia Stapley from the Royal Navy and the RAF's Air Specialist 1 Eve Brady, who had previously never lost an Inter Services match.

The Army also won the title in the ladies' masters, but it was the RAF who would deny the Army a win in the men's masters.
