Match Reports

Devonshire Cup

Well done to the Roehampton Club team consisting of Malcolm Bricknell, Ralph Evers. Peter Hardyment, Peter Bonnor- Morris and Philip Howard, who claimed a solid win against the RAC Pigeons in a very tight and competitive match to go through to the semi-finals. Good luck for the next match.

Commiserations to our other team (Viv Harris, Paul Ambrus, Danny and Sally Gesua) who lost their match in the quarter finals.

Southeast of England- Teams of Eight- National Final

As the only winning Surrey Team in the Metropolitan Cup, Peter Hardyment captained the Surrey team of 8 players including Malcolm Bricknell and qualified to play last Saturday in the National Finals.

After 6 gruelling hours of inter county matches, I am pleased to report that the team won overall coming top out of 20 different county teams.

Congratulations to them all for a fine win.
