Academy
I just wanted to express my thanks for making yesterday a real success, from the cakes made by the ladies to the drills done by Derick to the people helping with the morning sessions and drills and playing - thanks also to Paul for organising the lads v dads game.
I was particularly impressed with the way the youngest members of the Academy are coming along, I tend to get a little isolated just coaching the under 15's but I am delighted at the way they are progressing - a credit to all involved.

Presidents/Chairmans Day
Pete Owen (Chairman) also wanted to say a big thank you to everyone for all the effort and time put in yesterday. It turned out to be a great day with a lot of fun and everyone I have spoken to say they really enjoyed it.
Mike Brown (President) also added - "It says presidents day on the fixture card.but it realy was club members day with everyone,from early morning to late afternoon enjoying themselves and contributing to a well organised and successful occasion special thanks to those who performed quietly behind the scenes, the umpires the caterers and the ticket sellers you all helped to make the day special."
Calling all parents - challenge your son in this lads versus dads game on Sunday 18th July.
Start time will be roughly 1pm after the Academy training session.

On Sunday the 25th, Holme Pierrepont will be hosting the annual Race for Life event which is due to start at 11am.
This is just a quick message to remind you that you'll have to leave a bit earlier on that morning as the traffic around the ground will be quite bad.
