13th April - end of season day!
We shall be celebrating the end of another fantastic season on Saturday 13th April.
The Hodgson cup will be battled out at 11 o’clock at coach lane.
This will involve a “nannas” team of over 35s vs the “youth” team which is to be made up of members from the rest of the club. Helen will Be arranging the nannas and nicky the youth.
The youth need to recruit a teenager, someone in their 20s and 30s and must include members from at least 3 of the ladies teams so captains please let Nicky know who from your squad is keen and I’ll be in touch with them.
Men - we haven’t forgotten you! Please can we have to male umpiring volunteers?
Regardless of the result at the end of 70 minutes we shall end with penalty shuffles for some excitement!
Teas shall be provided by the nannas at coach lane afterwards.
All members of the club are welcome to this- if you want to play, support or just come and eat teas please come down!
The senior end of season awards dinner will follow that evening.
