Many thanks to you all for getting your forms and payments in promptly and ensuring that the club and WPA membership renewal exercise went smoothly. Most of you now have your licences and I’ll catch up with the rest asap. Don’t forget that you will need your licence in order to play in any WPA competitions this season: no licence – no play. For the record, the club currently has 23 paid-up members, which should ensure that we have the numbers to maintain our three league teams.
I would like to officially welcome one returning and two new members: John Chichester, Rose Fiera and Norman Francis. Best wishes for a enjoyable and successful season.
I would also like to congratulate Mike Wigg for being voted the WPA’s Most Improved Player of the Year 2012, a well-deserved accolade for a player who has gone from novice to Welsh international in a very short time.
Finally, I would like to flag up the WPA Veterans competition to be held at our club on Sunday, 24 March. It’s a triples event for over-55s to determine the Welsh team to play in the European version of the competition. Last year Tony Smith qualified and played in Denmark, so let’s get a Monkstone team in the frame again.
Regards,
Roger
