Bognor seniors have been playing catch-up in the past two to three weeks with many matches rescheduled from the very wet spring we had. Games were played in glorious warm and windless conditions. In all, seven matches have been played with four wins to Bognor, two halved and one lost, and with only one game to go against Waterlooville this is an excellent way to end the season. There were victories away to Hayling and at home to West Hove, Sandown & Shanklin and Singing Hills. There were halves away to Royal Winchester and at home to Littlehampton and the single loss came away to Lee-on-the-Solent. Thanks go to match manager David Turner, who has performed admirably in this difficult year with 36 games played.
