The Clem Griffiths Championship

posted 14 May 2019, 04:33 by Bernard Purdy

Following the the reintroduction of The Club Championship this year we have now decided to bring back the Clem Griffiths Championship.
This championship originally started in 2011 in memory of Clem Griffiths, who was our chairman for a period of 16 years until his tragic death in 2010.
The idea of the championship is to encourage newer members to try different sports and have a go at competitions. It is only open to members who have joined in the last 5 years. 
The rules are attached.
