Congratulations go to my own Under 15B team who won the league by a single point after a 3-1 victory in our last fixture with tremendous goals from Joe Kendal, Myran Szostak and Jake Taylor. It was our best ever season and I’m proud of them all. Thomas Luther’s Under 10A team also clinched promotion with a 2nd place finish. This also went down to the last game, with goals from Robson Luther and four from William Spratt giving them a 5-0 victory. Both the teams received trophies at the Mid Lincs Presentation evening at Newark showground in front of an audience of 2000 people. The Under 15A team had a tremendous run in the 15A league, finishing third, but only 3 points from top and 1 behind second place.

HELP REQUIRED! HELP REQUIRED! HELP REQUIRED! HELP REQUIRED!

Now the weather is here for a spot of tennis, wouldn’t it be nice if the Dunholme Tennis Club was open and you could enjoy the nice hot days playing with the children or just your partner. 

Well with your help this could be done.  Dunholme Parish Council are looking for a small committee of people to reopen and run the Dunholme Tennis Club again. 
They have spent a lot of money on the new sports pavilion and making the area look nice, so the surroundings you can play in are now much better. 
If you would be interested in forming or being on the committee please contact the Parish Clerk Laura Richardson at 30 Wentworth Drive,
Dunholme,
