Sudbury Footy Tournament and Evening Do 2010
Sudbury Scooter Club 5 a Side Football Tournament and Evening Do
August 21st 2010
WINNERS : Saints AKA Scooter Club
Runners Up : Five Bells
The rain stayed away, as always for Sudbury SC events, and everyone enjoyed an afternoon of football, music and BBQ.
Four teams entered this year
Saints AKA Scooter Club
Five Bells
Heads Up (Steve, Martin, Jeff from Sudbury SC and friends from the Kings Head Pub)
Old Vespas (Rob, Dan from Sudbury SC and friends)
We'd be interested to know why other clubs couldn't put in a team so we can make any changes next time.
All teams played each other twice and the top two teams took the trophies.
Saints played solid throughout the afternoon ending up at the top of the table, with Five Bells being given a run for their money to become runners up on goal difference.
The St John's Ambulance guys were kept busy patching up twisted ankles and dodgy knees. Interestingly, it seemed to be the youngsters suffering the injuries... I guess the older guys couldn't run fast enough to do any damage, or they're just made of tougher stuff than the kids these days !!!!
Pictures/Video to be uploaded soon
If you have any pictures, please send them via the website.
The evening do was more quiet than the last two do's we've had. There were many reasons why the numbers were down on last year but a good chance to catch up over a beer and some quality tunes in the background.
Thanks to those that helped arrange and run the Day
DJs : Mark, Dean, Terry, Ian and Martin
BBQ : Charmaine and Pat
Referee : Pete
