Big Win for Men's Top Club

Hello Fellow Members.

Last night our Men's Top Club "B" Team went to Lindfield in the 1st round of the National Top Club Championship AND WON 3-2.

The Lindfield team includes players who have won Sussex Championships and appeared in National Finals while some of our players were playing in their first National Competition.

I want our team, Captain Ashley Tyler, Bob Carrington, Fred Hammond, Mervyn Reed, Eric Forbes, Mike Nolan, Martin Graham-Hyde, David Young, Peter Fenwick, David Thomson and Richard Bosworth, to know that this is a monumental achievement and that we are very proud of them.

We wish them every success in future rounds.

Message of thanks from The Winter Committee

The Winter Committee would like to thank all those members who supported us throughout the winter season. We played Short Mat Monday to Friday and Skittles on Friday evenings. Short mat was enjoyed by everyone and Skittles has become a great social evening. With the bar being open many members would come along just for the social side.
As Friday Skittles evenings were enjoyed by so many, Mike intends to run one every month throughout the summer starting on Friday 22 April, 7 to 9pm.
Once again thank you for your support.
VI, David and Mike

Our first club social and Valentine dance.  A huge success .
