Thank-you: to our Volunteer Committee. The grafters that get most real work done round the club. Work is almost complete on the new Fence and dugouts and they’ve also started the process to re-locate the scoreboard. Thanks to all the volunteers involved who not only donate their time and expertise but often resource these projects themselves. True community spirit. A huge appreciation from the club must go to Martin Mc Guigan and the team at Oddball Engineering Solutions who designed and manufactured the dug outs and were very generous in the process.
