B&DNL Charity Versatility Tournament!

Hello everyone

We had a fantastic 24 teams enter the Charity Tournament this year. It was held on 5th May and we were lucky with beautiful weather.
There were 4 groups of six with great game play all round. Everyone seemed to enjoy the versatility format, particularly giving shooting a go! The winners of each group went into a semi-final: Mayfair Vixens v Luton Tornadoes and Grangers Blaze v Westoning Diamonds.
With two tough semis played, Mayfair Vixens and Grangers Blaze made it to the finals with Jackie Stigwood and Jadine Brome umpiring.
The game saw Grangers take an early lead with some lovely shooting from Beth and Kellise and soon they were 6-0 ahead. But Mayfair Vixens were determined to fight back, with some excellent defensive play by their GD Fay and some super interceptions by their WA Katie. Grangers kept their heads and managed to maintain their lead, winning comfortably in the end. Great game by both teams and fab umpiring!
There were some fabulous crazy socks/dress up, particularly from Cranfield Gems and Bedford Foxes. But the winners of the crazy socks competition were Absolute, with matching socks, hair and face paint! Cranfield Comets won the sportsmanship prize.
A big thank you to everyone who entered; all the donations from teams and umpires; and to Bedford Academy who provided discounted courts so additional money could be donated. The final amount raised for  St. John's Hospice at Moggerhanger was £1230, well done everyone involved.
