As our older teams start their GCSE's, we wish them the very best of luck.

A relatively quiet (and soggy) week this week with many teams at sunny Skegness, making way for a lot of match play for our younger teams. The return of the BBQ was welcomed - thank you to the BBQ team for braving the elements to give the girls another hot food option.

Congratulations to all the Players of the Matches as awarded by the Opposition.

As we head into our third weekend of league, I'd like to wish all the teams heading to Butlins the very best of luck - you'll have an amazing time. For those coming to Whitworth on Saturday, we'll have the BBQ team enticing you all with the smell of sizzling sausages!

Right now though, it's time to celebrate the Players of the Matches from 2/5, as nominated by the Opposition - congratulations everyone!
