“We could not have asked for a better day. Paul was obviously there bringing the weather to us, every really seemed to have enjoyed themselves, and it went really smoothly.”
Commenting on the half-way house where players taking part were treated to a cold beer and bite to eat Kirsty said;
“Helen, Joanne and myself were running it. It was so well organised credit must go to Gareth and Jo the players seemed to really enjoy their beer and snack at the half-way house.”
A sun burnt freckle covered and exhausted Gareth expressed his gratitude to those who took part, he said;
“In all on the day we had 43 teams with 172 players and we raised over £5,000 from the event. I want to thank each and every one of them for taking part.”
