Good afternoon to everyone in the NOBS World; where ever you are. This Sunday, we are expecting a warm sunny day, perfect for cricket, which gets under way at 1pm. The powers to be would like you to turn up at 12:30 to get the days event organized.
I have been receiving all kinds of inquiries on how last weekend events played out. Below is an email from John Moyes Guilfoyle on last Fridays soccer.
The golf was played last Sunday at Burlington’s Cedar Springs Golf Course, with a three some of Jimmy & Caroline Anderson and Andrew Gaydon taking the best ball tournament with a score of 70!! Well done.
Longest drive for the ladies was Jean King, while Tiger Keith McIntyre grabbed the men’s.!!!
Closest to the pin for ladies was Brenda Clark, while Jimmy Anderson collected even more silver ware, taking the men’s division.
Jack Morrison once again did a great job I am told organizing the event. Thanks Jack
Next Sunday, August 25th we are planning a touch event. TBA
Have a nice weekend, Da Thug

Subject: Game 2: So close!
On Friday we played the second game of the annual NOBS vs BOTSC challenge, and this was very well played. With the core of the team from last month, the players were much more disciplined. We knew, relatively speaking, that we were fitter than the opposition, but this time we played smarter and let the ball do the work.
Our strike force was again Andrew, but now with Tony Windsor, not only feeding the forwards but covering back to help out the often beleaguered defence. Again the mid field was anchored by Dave Findley.
Throughout the game we had an amazing number of shots on goal, but many were straight at the opposing goal keeper, and a record number over the bar! If we had been playing Gaelic football and got a point for each ball over the bar, we would have killed them.
Luckily their strikers looked like they were playing rugby and also skied the ball. We were very unfortunate to present the soccer guys with two easy goals, but our last minute goal brought the final tally to 3-1, in favour of the round ball team. A very solid game by the mid field, including Nick Parkes, Johnny Griff and of course the Eastern Dynamo, Ted.
Thanks to all who supported the team, and next year we will be ready for them!
John Moyes Guilfoyle.
