Election of Team Captains – The 2014 Season

The Monkstone Petanque club held their annual general meeting last Wednesday in which they bid farewell to their outgoing Club Captain Jim Harrison. Under Jim’s leadership the club’s top side, the Monkstone Monarchs, remained firmly in the first division, with both the second division sides, the Marauders and the Minotaurs, continuing to succeed and get ever-closer to promotion themselves.

The club’s executive have decided that Jim’s role of Club Captain is to be split between three team Captains for the 2014 season. Paul Milton is to Captain the Monkstone Marauders with Bernard Adshead taking control of the Minotaurs. Finally, Tony Smith will Captain the Monarchs.

It is hoped that this new approach will ensure strong performances by all three teams in the 2014 season and we wish Paul, Bernard and Tony the best of luck.
