The Annual Dinner & Presentation Evening went well and was attended by 56 including 5 guests. The event was up to the usual high standards of catering and ambience. The presentation section was a little précised with only one cricket award recipient in attendance. The Club’s guest, Paul Thompson, presented an award to Geoff Owen.
The award winners for 2011 are:
Clubman of the year: Geoff Prouton
Over 50s player of the year: Barry Goodman
Over 60s player of the year: Geoff Owen
Over 50A player of the year: Paul Kerley
Over 60A player of the year: Tony Adams
The Golf section annual achievement awards (average Stableford) were announced by President and Chairman John Rickard in the absence of Trevor Foreman, unavoidably in the USA. First place went to Mick Swain and yours truly was surprised and delighted to be runner up.
John Rickard also expressed the member’s wishes that our colleagues in the England over 60s squad have both a successful and enjoyable forthcoming international matches tour to Australia.
Annual Dinner 2012:
Members are invited to offer themselves to organise the 2012 Annual Dinner. Some ideas to consider for 2012 are a more central venue (say Winchester) and a buffet dinner rather than a formal sit down meal. The drive must be to attract more of the growing HSCC membership to attend the annual dinner and presentation evening. Any volunteers and ideas will be very welcome. |
Andy Yorke had an excellent all round performance of 25 with the bat, 3 for 23 from 9 overs and a very good diving catch on the boundary
