» 2012 SUFFOLK CHARITY FOURS

On Sunday 22nd January Suffolk hosted their annual Charity Fours tournament at Needham Market Community Centre, this year raising funds for Age UK.

As with last years event we concentrated on getting as many entries as possible in order to maximise the income. With 45 teams, including ones from Essex, Norfolk, Cambridgeshire and Bedfordshire, entered there wouldn't be enough time for a knockout stage. So the eventual winners would be decided simply on how well the teams did in their 4 group games.

7 of the 9 group winners won 3 of their 4 games, they were Burstall, Stratford St Mary, Bentley, Colmworth, Knodishall A, Brockley and Barking A. Going one point better than those teams were the eventual Runners-up, Withersfield A, who finished on 7 points. But the winners were the only team not to drop a single point all day, Barking B, who were Mick & Shirley Watkins and Sue & Andy Gilder.

We would like to thank everyone who helped to contribute to the final figure which we expect to top £1000.
