Well done Alpha Ladies who have finished well up the league table. It was difficult for us at first with Sue Ochyra still very much in mind but the team settled down very well and newcomers Denise Howard and Julie Romijn also did very well.
Thank you to Bev for her assistance throughout the season, all in all I think we can feel very proud of ourselves.
