Good Season for the Friday B team
The Friday B Team have had a good season here is a message from their Captain Vic Howell:
“As captain of the Friday Over 55s B Team this season for the first time since joining Mere Green last year I have to say that I am extremely proud of everyone who has been part of the team throughout the season in the Over 55s B Cup and Division 2.
We were defeated by Water Orton B in both the B Cup and in the final game in Division 2 which meant we were defeated by the eventual winners of the Cup and they also pipped us to promotion.
It goes without saying that every single player has done themselves, Mere Green club and myself as captain very proud. I think we have the makings of great things to come.”
