Interclub
Our men’s premier team is playing in the final at Wilding Park this Saturday from 1pm. They have an extraordinary record having competed in the finals for 19 out of 20 seasons.
I understand their opposition Country Ashburton is taking a bus load !! Members are very welcome to go and support them – we need tocompete with this bus load !
I would like to acknowledge the long serving Johnny and Tim McHarg and Matt, James and Tim Meredith. You continue to be stars for the club. It is also wonderful to see young blood coming through – Liam and Nant. Good luck guys. Speedy recovery Harry from your injury.
Well done to Division 1 ladies, Division 3 men and the Division 2 mixed team who each won their grades. Go the Division 5 men who are still in the running to win.
