Ted E. Bear Awarded Bear of the Match at Recent Newbury Training Night

Thanks to a funny conversation with Miriam on Thursday training about our childhood cuddly toys we decided to have a bring your teddy night. Lots of people turned up clutching well loved toys even though feeling rather sheepish. They were all lined up on the bench and ended up in a club photo.

My teddy has been up in the loft in a pillowcase for the last 25 years and thoroughly enjoyed his outing.

Comments from that evening:
“ I would like to say thanks to you for making me feel so welcome at the club, I know I have friends that were already members but everyone at the club has been really friendly and it has been great fun so far.”
