1st Anniversary afternoon

Saturday was the first anniversary of our clubs first meeting.

The day started wet and overcast but soon warmed up and the sun came out.

During the morning we put up the bunting and the tent. After setting out the chairs and arranging the glasses and the plates we all went off to lunch at the club.

We started playing at 2pm, our guests from ABC Kirdford where enjoying the new piste and trying to get the hang of the old.

At 3pm our youngest club member present cut the cake, Lesley and Jan poured the wine and we all sang happy birthday to the club.

Unfortunatly our french guest did not appear until after the cake and wine.

Eventually 14 members of the twinning group came and played, it was fun teaching our french guest how to play petanque. During the afternoon Gene from Semur told us she had been asked by the Semur boule club to approach us and find out whether we would be prepared to visit Semur for a weekends petanque and would we be willing to arrange for them to visit us.  After our meeting she is going back to arrange both our visit to them and their visit to us.

Inter-regional Championships at Brean Sands

We have just been invited to send our team to the Inter-Regional Championships at Brean Sands, Somerset.
This championships will bring together all of the regions in England plus the Welsh squad. It is held over two days at Pontins Holiday resort in Brean Sands, Somerset. We will be taking part as a combined team in division two. Our team missed out on the chance to play in divison one by just one game. It is still a good start for a Club that as only been playing for less than a year and two of our team also started playing less than a year ago.
Well done team get ready to receive your shirts
