Do not worry if your group cannot find 5 people to make a team, just contact me to let us know you want to play and we will sot you into a team.

The new A&SEA Committee as of 1st March is as follows:

Chairman - Chris Mann
Administrator - Joe Gurney
Treasurer / Memberships - Pete Newson
Activities - Gemma Crader
Publicity - Kerry Mann
Development - Lee Gilbert
Training - Sharon Law

GCMs - Diane Newson, Lorraine Whiting.

The following awards and trophies were given out:

The Andy Pitkin Trophy (Best individual) - Richard Leach

Roy Gordon Trophy - Redbridge
Memberships Trophy - Romford

Also, Joe Gurney was made an Area Honorary Life Member.

In conclusion, I would like to thank the 2009 - 10 committee for all their hard work, and I wish the new committee every success in the future. Given that I am stepping down as Area Chairman, this also means that I will be stepping down as DNC as well.

Kind regards,

Joe Gurney
