After 40 yers of being a stalwart member of the Club Chris is leaving for Northern climes! Chris has played at Hampton for over 40 years and is now a valued umpire and his committment to the Club has been second to none.

Don’t forget that we’ll be holding a “turn up and play” game on New Year’s Day from 12-2 at Hampton. Aimed at over 14, though everyone welcome if supervised! Bring green and white as ever. Happy New Year!
Aimed at 14 and over, though if you are playing and want to bring your younger child, then of course that’s fine. Please bring your green and white shirts to make sorting the teams easier. Look forward to seeing a number of you then. In the meantime, have a great Christmas and New Year!
