Old Style Club Shirts: Old style club shirts are to be phased out for full members when representing the club in official games.                They can, however, be worn for roll-ups. 

Please do not hesitate to contact any member of the Club Management if you have a query.

Finally, you will see that the paths have all been concreted and levelled, a new equipment shed has replaced the old green structure, and a new machinery shed is almost complete.  Major work undertaken by a team of volunteers from the club, headed by Peter McNeil. 

Richard and his ‘green’ team have worked ceaselessly throughout the winter to prepare the green for the season. From what resembled a field in October, they have achieved a lovely sward of green. 

We all owe these volunteers a huge THANK YOU, they have given hours of work, in spite of awful weather they have achieved a great deal.

Thank you, each and everyone.

WE LOOK FORWARD TO WELCOMING YOU ALL ON OPENING DAY.
