Scratch team

The scratch team lost on Monday evening at Wollaton Park so as the saying goes I think results will have to go their way to avoid the drop. The seniors open on Monday was a great day with a full field and one or two Stanton members in the prizes namely Steve Shore and Kev Vamplew and Paul Griffin and Vic Roberts so well done to them.
