Awards Evening - 8th July 2007

The Under 13s Awards Evening took place on Sunday 8th July at Broadfields from 4 till 8 pm. Thanks to all of you who came along to support the boys and see them collect their awards. We are very grateful to the organisers of the event, Sue Parr, Sue Coleman and Althea Fuller and to everyone who helped out and laid on a superb spread - the food was excellent.

We had more awards to give out than ever before. There were squad trophies for all the boys and the special awards chosen by the players and the managers. The A team collected some great trophies for finishing as runners up in Division 1 and for winning the St Josephs tournament and the New Windsor Plate. Seven boys collected 7 year awards and we also awarded the Jack Petchey prize. The B team players had also voted to give out some special fun awards. The winners were:
