Redhill BB Interleague day 2023

[tommo III]

Quoting our Vice-Chairman's message to the League:

Subject: Redhill BB Interleague Day Reminder - Saturday 15 April
Hi all
Thank you for all supporting our annual Redhill Interleague competition and making yourselves available to play on Saturday 15 April.
If your circumstances have now changed and you are unable to make the day, please let me know ASAP.
Please can you get to the Salfords club at 10:30 am for a 11:00 start.
This is the Redhill leagues charity day where this year we will be raising money for The Stroke Association.
We do this by holding a raffle, having a cake sale, fines for pegs etc. To help with this it would be great if you could bring along a raffle prize or bake a cake.
Although this is our interleague day it is also a fun day where we have an annual theme. The theme for this year is Purple and Blue, the colours of our our chosen charity.
Please can I also ask if you are interested in playing in our Surrey Open on Sunday 16 April, again at the Salfords Club, that you let Tony Cross know asap.
See you all on the 15 April dressed in Purple and Blue.
Cheers
Mark

A great day at the Redhill day, good to see so many new and young faces taking part and enjoying themselves. Well run day with money raised for the Stroke Charity, plenty of laughs and some lovely home made cakes being sold for the charity (especially liked the lemon drizzle and the chocolate sponge). Thank you for the invite and look forward to a good day at the Open tomorrow.

A momentous weekend of Redhill-League staged competition kicked of with their One-Day Interleague on the Saturday.....

Many thanks to the hardworking Redhill committee, notably the lady members who were proactive with marshalling sales of cakes, fines, and other fundraising such as raffles and sweepstake: a total of £350 was raised for the Stroke Association.
Chairman Tony arranged a minute's silence in remembrance of Terry Oakley.
Fritz, Anita and Alex formed an excellent Admin team, with Alex taking the mic to organise games and scorers.
And the tables were set up well, kudos for whoever was responsible for delivering and installing.

As TJ commented, great to see a spate of youngsters taking part and adding to the occasion. And looks like he missed out on the glorious home-made Victoria Sponge as no mention given ....
Well done everyone, and for the lesson given by Michael's dad in beating me !!!
