President's Day 19 July 2025
Update 30 August 2025 - (John Prattley)​​​​
​
​​​The Over 60s league matches came to an end on Tuesday with a 6-2 home defeat by Desford A. As we were safe from relegation, we fielded a much changed side, but maintained our 5th place finish.
Well done to Graham and the team for their success over the season.
Our three friendly matches result in one win (64-52 at home to Shakespeare Park) and two losses (66-52 at Thringstone and 56-52 at home to Measham). The matches were all very enjoyable and we would like to thank Thringstone for their hospitality on Friday evening and the excellent faggots and peas.
Thank you to everyone who took part in these games - hope you all enjoyed the matches.
​​
​​The Club Competitions are progressing well, and two finals have been played. Please ensure any outstanding matches are played by Sunday 7 September. The same arrangements apply as in previous rounds for arranging the match, but please advise John/Jen Cort when the final is taking place.
​​​
John Bentley has kindly donated the 80th Anniversary pins he obtained to the club, with the suggestion that we sold these for £1 each and put the money towards a trophy for the winner of the Monday John Bentley competition. We would encourage members to purchase a pin which can be obtained from the clubhouse.​
