Availability low point

The fact the club came through last weekend with so many positive results is remarkable. To wake up on a Saturday morning knowing there were only 19 players between the top 2 mens teams is not something I wish to do again in a hurry.

Last night's committee meeting came up with an idea to avoid this being a problem again and the minutes willbe published on the web site for all to see. To an extent it is also a matter of not being selfish and dropping out at the last minute or not wanting to play elsewhere in the club if non availability is merely one of an inconvenient start time.

A number of players still owe subs and so if you are one of those players please pay up in the next few days. Currently the club is being financially supported by those who have paid. The new shirts are here and so hopefully we can put the off field issues to one side and push on positively both on and off the pitch.

Well done to Sarah T for organising the fireworks. We do need more people from all the teams to attend our socials with the next one being on December the 8th at the club. Please support this event which will also involve the school and the rugby club so very important for our future that we show the club as being a vibrant and friendly place.

Eds wanted me to specifically say how his returning from holiday at 05.00 on the 10th November shows his commitment to the cause but why is he holidaying in the hockey season in the first place ??
