Jamie Oliver Night a Success!! (Saturday 26th November 2011)

We’d just like to say a big thank you to everyone who supported the club’s first ever Jamie Oliver Night! 25 of us gathered at the Clubhouse for what was a great, sociable evening. 

The ‘Drink Up’ drinks dispenser proved to be a very sought after raffle prize of which the lucky winner was announced as our Club Chairman, Pridge. For someone who is currently injured, he did a very good job of running to collect this prize! Congratulations to you Pridge and we look forward to sharing a tipple from the prize with you soon. 

We have raised a fantastic total of over £150 for the club from this event. So again we would like to thank those who came along and also those who helped out on the night to make this a success.

Men's Badgers

Although the Badgers League is intended as a development league for the younger players, rather than being directly competitive, I am happy to say that this was the most successful male Badgers season for the club so far.

The league, organised by Gerrards Cross Hockey Club, consisted of seven teams:-

  • Gerrards Cross
  • Amersham & Chalfont
  • Tring
  • Eastcote
  • Yateley
  • Slough
  • Aylesbury

Each team played each other once and I am proud to say that Aylesbury were undefeated throughout, winning three of our games and drawing the other three.

My thanks go out to all those junior players for this season, all of whom played excellently and showed continuous improvement as the games progressed - which bodes well for our senior teams as these guys get a little older. Those players were:-

  • Richard Anley
  • Peter Atcheson
  • Tim Atcheson
  • Dan Best
  • Stephen Best
  • Will Ebsworth
  • Charlie McLaughlin
  • Ollie Paterson
  • Josh Penn
  • Jack Rolfe

In addition to that, my thanks particularly go out to those adult players that gave up their time to play, supporting and assisting the juniors throughout each and every game, setting a shining example in patience, tolerance, unselfish play and also giving the benefit of their playing experience. Those players were:-

  • Tris Anley
  • Mike Battye
  • Adam Blackwood
  • Mark Bowes
  • Ed Gurney
  • Dave How
  • Terence Kynaston
  • Dave Steven
  • Andy Sykes

Once again thanks to all the players - and those parents providing pitchside support and transport services, particulary Tania Atcheson, Graham Best and Ray Rolfe.
