On behalf of myself and Nick i would like to thank everyone who played in the Winter League this winter.  It was bigger and better than last year with more teams and some great scores.  The final was played last weekend with the awesome combination of Gary Calpin and Pat Little once again proving their team skills, beating Andy Carlton and Brad Wilkinson.
 
So well done to Gary and Pat, we look forward to next winters winter League which i hope will be as successful!
