Staff vs. Committee - 15th December 2008



The Staff won the annual match, six games to three. Captain Donal can be seen above presenting the 'impressive' trophy to Secretary David.
The actual definition of 'Staff' in David's team selection was fairly flexible! Nevertheless a resounding victory. The match was followed by an excellent dinner in the Lounge.
