What a Saturday scorcher!
The tennis courts were empty, but with plenty of sun cream in evidence as 24 members took to the green for our President’s Day last Saturday.
Players were split into two teams, one captained by Fran (President)in a yellow cap and the other captained by Gill (Vice-President) in a red cap. The afternoon started with a ‘spider’ in which everyone, players and supporters, took part. This was won by supporter Tricia Dixon. Donations from the spider were for our charities of the year.
12 ends were played with hydration breaks, just like in the World Cup, taken after every 4 ends.
This was followed by a delicious buffet tea prepared and served by Sue and Steve Greenwood, thanks were expressed to them both for this.
The raffle organised by Sarha, ably assisted by Kim, had an amazing array of prizes and raised £136 for club funds.
After the scores had been totalled, Fran’’s team was declared the winner and he was presented with the President’s trophy by Gill.
A big THANK YOU to everyone who contributed in any way to a very successful, if rather warm, afternoon.
