A club spokesman said: “We have been doing this for the last seven to eight years as a thanks for their hard work throughout the year especially during the peak of pandemic.”

The first instalment has taken place and resulted in a narrow win for the host club. The spokesman added: “It was a fun-filled evening with food and drink provided at cost by our social event sponsors Spice Lounge Kitchen and covered by the club. “

The second instalment again backed by club sponsor CARS4YOU and the Spice Lounge will take place in August.
