2024 Finals and Founders

By on 22nd September 2024 in Competition News, Newsletter, Summer League Reports

Wednesday and Thursday last week saw the Finals of the 8’s, 3’s, 4’s, Captains and Secretaries at Abingdon United FC and on Thursday the Founders and Legends competition for the over 50s which again this year was held at Abingdon Conservative Club. Many thanks to both venues for staging these events.

On Wednesday at Abingdon United a collection was made amongst the Aunt Sally community who were there on the night following the tragic loss of a young Abingdon United footballer Jack Badger and thank you to all who contributed generously to raise £150 on the night which will go to a just fund raising money to support the family and in memory of Jack 

Both nights were dry fortunately, if dark and cold and many thanks to all who took part on the two evenings which  apart from the singles and pairs semi finals which will be held on October 4th effectively wrapped up our Summer 2034 season.

2024 Competition Sunday Results

By on 13th August 2024 in Competition News, Newsletter, Summer League Reports

Competition Sunday this year at Abingdon United FC was a hot one and kicked off with registration at 1pm and draws following. Played in the order below the Competitions were:-

Captains – 8 entrants

Secretaries – 8 entrants

Pairs – 12 entrants

Singles – 24 entrants

At the AGM we adopted the ‘Winter’ rules on Competitions so best of 3 legs and if drawn over those 3 then 3 sticks/1 stick/6 sticks with the same order after tossing for 3 sticks. 

Final singles games (some hard fought) ended around 6.30pm.

Teams taking part were The Bell @Grove, Croft Nomads, Abingdon Utd@Con Club, Abingdon Con Club, Berinsfield SSC, The Plum Pudding, Abingdon Utd C.

Those still standing at the end ….

Pairs and Singles Semis/Final on Presentation Night. 

Many thanks for Roger Nichols for collating the entries, Claire Foster, Roy Taylor and Alan Foster for draws, recording and scoring. Also to Brian Clapton (and team) for getting the pitch sorted and the bar staff, without which it would definitely been too dry. To those who did their share of sticking up/calling in what became a free sauna in the shed – thank you!

NOTE from Roger….

I would just like to add my thanks to all who turned up and played Sunday for the Pairs, Singles, Captains and Secretaries Competitions and congratulate all the successful semi finalists in both the Pairs and Singles who will contest the remainder of their competitions on Presentation Night. Congratulations also the the finalists in both the Captains and Secretaries Competitions who will meet on Finals Night at Abingdon United on September 18th.

After a lot of soul searching over the future of the Competitions, and when to hold them,  together with lots of chasing to make sure we had  sufficient entries, which in one or two cases needed individuals to be gently persuaded we have been able to maintain our long held tradition of staging these Summer league competitions and that’s great for our game.

I do need to apologise to a couple of players, Mick Greenaway of Berinsfield  and Dave Taylor from The Bell Grove who due to a bit of confusion on my part were initially omitted from the Singles competition. Luckily we were able to accomodate Mick  thanks to Roy Taylor giving up his place in the draw, but Dave missed out altogether and for that I sincerely apologise Dave.

The confusion was caused by changes caused by both no shows of entrants on the day and late entries which we accepted on the day to boost the number of entries for each of the Comps and a bit of incompetence on my part!

It was a long  and a hot afternoon with some excellent throwing and quite a few surprises. No 6’s on the day, but a few 5’s and lots of dolls spread around all of the entrants. So well done to all and I should give a special mention to Steve Fernback secretary of the Bystander B previously (and soon to be again) The Fox Boars Hill team in Section E on reaching the final of the Secretaries comp.

Thanks to everyone for their entry, their patience and for their commitment which enabled us to stage 5 of our traditional 8 Summer Competitions. We now need to move on in the next few weeks to see if we can stage the remaining 3 Competitions involving teams of 3’s, 4’s and 5’s so you can all expect some reminders, some cajoling and hopefully that will ensure that we reach our minimum number of entries to enable these to be held before the end of the season!

Finally, it was great to see our President and playing legend John Simmons with us for most of the afternoon, it’s always a pleasure to see and talk to John and to appreciate what a great attribute he, and his father before him have been to our game.
