 However, Worcestershire lost by the little matter of 359 runs, which remained the county's second-worst defeat in terms of runs until 2001.Hampton played a number of further matches for Worcestershire in 1925, hitting 55 against Hampshire in late July, but he was too often dismissed for small scores, being dismissed for single figures in 13 of his 22 innings.He made only one further first-class appearance, in July 1926, when he suffered the indignity of making a pair against Derbyshire.
