A lower key event than usual saw a large attendance at the club house this evening following the final games played earlier in the day. Special thanks to club sponsors Anvoner Law and The Floor Shop (additional thanks to Tas and Sam!) for sponsoring pizzas and drinks.
The awards themselves were hosted by Section Chairman Paul Brady and Ladies Captain Kate Fitton, with the help of some of the Men's Captains for specific awards.
Paul confirmed that it had been a remarkable season with more players appearing this year than since 2020; the return of the Ladies side; and a best ever aggregate finish for the combined Men's section.
After presentations to club umpires (Sarah Withers, Jonathan Elms, Lee-Jane Yates, Chris Smith and Danny Becker) the following awards were presented. Congratulations to all of the winners - a selection of photos can be found elsewhere on the website.
