Regrettably they haven't detailed the match rules.

Wonder how many other places would make a suitable venue? Plenty places big enough for a game of sorts (unlike that chamber by the looks of it) but a decent floor would always be the problem!

Net practice @ the Boreroom?

This was featured on Radio 4 "You and Yours" yesterday. Apparently no fours or sixes and catches valid from rebounds from the roof or walls.

Second Ave in Burlington bunker. Way long enough but not that high!
