This proved difficult at the beginningof the season when people were out of practice and unused to playing together as a team. However, towards theend of the last term and throughout this term the team has become very enthusiastic and this showed by the standard ofsuccess achieved. But once this was maintained we had to overcome the difficulties of illness, including two membersof the team breaking their arms.Everybody has enjoyed playing together and we have had some competitive matches, the most enjoyable of these beingthe ones against Dean Close; in the last match of the season we played a second team against them, which we unfortunatelylost 14-7, due mainly to the lack of practice.I would like to thank all the members of the teams who have played so enthusiastically, and Mrs. Holdaway for hermoral support.Team: S. Blyth (captain), J. Wilson, A. Parshall, C. Ledger, S. Oughton, T. Wolferstan, J. Crowhurst.Also played: R. Beckett, L. Schnitzer, A. Rickards.Results were as follows:WINTER TERM SPRING TERMv.
