As in previous years, in order to make our day (Friday Feb 19th) run smoothly we will require the assistance of a good number of volunteers. If you are not playing on that day please support the club by helping man the barby, do some spotting etc. A call for volunteers for our day will be made in a couple of weeks. Many hands make light work!!
Looking forward to seeing you in action at this popular event!
