Hi Everyone,
Friday club night
– Good to see a good turn out on Friday night.
– We welcome Tommy Nevin and his son Thomas who enjoyed their first night.
– Thanks to Chris, Robbie, Bill, Hans and Keith for support
Cheerio Achint
– Our club captain Achint Makesh said a surprising farewell on Friday night.
– Achint wants to become a pilot and will spend the coming months training in America and Spain learning the skills.
– He plans to take his bat on his travels.
– Achint was a successful club player and always enjoyed the challenge of junior and senior league.
– He was always very competitive and I’m sure he will use these skills to achieve his goal.
– He’ll be back for sure.
– We wish him well.
Kirkmuirhill Girls Brigade
– Enjoyed my visit to Kirkmuirhill on Monday night.
– The challenge the 4 girls face in learning the new sport of Table Tennis for a DOE Silver Award is the quality of bats and balls that are available to them.
– Understand they can only work with the equipment that is provided.
– However that challenge becomes even more difficult with inferior equipment .
– I took along some club bats and practice balls which hopefully made our session a bit easier.
– I have them working on a Butterfly Skills programme Improver Bronze level.
– The girls are very keen to learn and achieve their goal. Keep you posted.
Finally
– Watch today’s young talent
Thanks
Peter
