The Sportsman's Dinner is our Club's major fund raising event of the Season and your support of our Dinner would be much appreciated. Our Club needs to raise £24,000 this Season to break even but we are also planning to organise running at least one Under 18's Team next Season so it is vital that the 2012 Dinner is a financial success.
