Chairman’s Report:
1. The Chairman reported that from a senior playing point of view the season had been fantastic with both teams securing trophies, 1st team winning the Mick Savage and Yorkshire Council Play offs and 2nd Team gaining promotion after finishing Runner Ups.

The Chairman praised the efforts of overseas player Robin Singh and congratulated him on his achievements.
