We are still waiting for the results from Saturday’s senior match which took place in the warm sunshine we found at Portsmouth. Eastbourne looked to be the winners of the match with about 340 points and we probably secured a better than expected second place with about 300 points. Host club Chichester were another 40…

As some of you will be well aware today’s under 13 and under 15 match at Dartford was cancelled – though nobody told us until we got there. Thanks to Sarah Hennessy for making lots of phone-calls from the track to stop many of you from travelling round the M25. We don’t really know why…
