Stokes Valley Sporting News


Stokes Valley Tennis

The Stokes valley Regional 1 Tennis Team recently achieved runner-up in the Wellington competition. The winning team, Thorndon, had players who were semi-professional, so we can be very proud of our group!

Our team were:

Eric Lydon No 1
Kerrion Ball No 2
Matt Spooner No 3
Jeff Coleman No 4
Steve Chapman No 5

The team was sponsored by Dick Werry and Red Tomatoes Pizza Restaurant. The team was managed by Lloyd Kelly.

This is only the second season that this team has played together, and they exceeded all expectations against very strong competition from throughout the Wellington region.

Stokes Valley Rugby

This year we are fielding Senior 1, Senior 3, Colts, Reserve 1, two Presidents Teams and three Netball Teams.

Old-Timers Day (1 June): There will be home games and junior games. A luncheon for the older generation and then evening entertainment by Billy Cadillac. Invited guests will include the 1984 junior team.

If you have a spare Saturday afternoon why not come down to the park and support your local rugby team? Its well worth a watch!

Thanks,
Megan Lynn
