Award

I went along to the Adnams Suffolk Coastal League Finals at Badingham, a couple of Sundays ago.  It was Meadlands who mastered the surface, defeating Cotton (their only loss) in the Grand Final.  Afterwards, the nine preliminary group winners and runners up, were awarded prizes.  We finished 11th overall (see below).

Thanks Simon!

New recruit

Here is a picture of a little girl playing pétanque... actually it is Darren's daughter Izzi (5) who is just starting out.  She has her own circle, that she can position much nearer the cochonnet than the regular players to make for a fairer game.

Sometimes we would just mark a line for her to throw.  She won the match for us!

Metre lines

I have glued on some 1 metre marker sticks onto the timber surround as a distance aid.  It have also found it helpful for improving my accuracy when pacing out.

 

Very boring photograph

Not the best of pictures (the ground doesn't slope that much and the boulders are actually small stones) but you get the idea.

We now have eight regulars with others appearing here and there.  There is an end of season meeting tonight at the Village Hall (6.30) as there is lots to talk about.
