It was an emotional moment on a night when drinks were plentiful so not surprising Steven's camera prowess was a bit shaky but the image says it all, including the blur... Even Frank Snaith, presenting, had a tear in his eye.
Great to see you Norman, hope you enjoy the whisky and we'll keep you to that promise to keep popping in.
After Norman's jig to 'Simply the Best', a couple of other smoothies moved in... The girls have got no chance!
In view, June Cadman, Arthur Cadman, Yvonne Cook, Ray Laing and Margaret Richardson.
WINNERS
Congratulations to Bill Routledge's team from Durham (left to right, G Alderson, M Robinson & W Routledge)
Unbeaten in the round robin stages, they then went on to knock out Ferryhill's own Keith Seymour's unbeaten squad to take the title and the biggest money pot.

COVID UPDATE - CLOSED AGAIN!
30September 2020
Apologies everyone but we're closed again. The signs that it was coming down the line were there to see and the latest Government Confusion has finally, to some extent, been clarified. Colin and I spoke numerous times this morning in the hope of salvaging something. And then, in between calls, the Government updated their website with some detail about the latest restrictions. The image below shows an excerpt from their website (updated 30 September). The full address is: https://www.gov.uk/…/north-east-of-england-local-restrictions… More updates and detail will follow, I'm sure, and I'll keep you informed if anything changes. For now, take care, keep safe and hopefully... we'll catch up again sooner rather than later. PS. Please read the Government section carefully. It's not 100% clear but included in the law is a definite restriction to travelling between areas. Don't get caught out. There are serious fines at stake.

This year's AGM saw one of our biggest turnouts ever. Thanks to everyone for your support. As well, this year we had close to a record number of new members joining/rejoining. Among, them, Billy Maddison... At last, a very welcome return and it'll be great to see the two brothers back on the same rink.
Since we couldn't hold our usual presentation ceremony last April we took the chance to present prizes to last year's winners. See the leagues page for all the winners, too many to mention here. Fixtures are also on page now and once we have played some games I'll get the tables on there too.
We're Back
2020 - 2021 season is off and running...
From stalwart to coolwart!
Winners and runners up of this weekend's 2nd Chance Knockout Tournament. (Left to right... Winners Colin Larcombe and his grandson Conrad Morrison. Runners up Lawrence O'Brien and Joe Hutchinson). Well done lads. It was a marathon of a day so an extra well done to Lorrie who was back half an hour later for his first match in the singles league... He won that too.
