GREENE KING CUP FINAL 2010

GREENE KING CUP FINAL.

The final of the Greene King cup played each year by teams in the Rutland Petanque league took place on Thursday 9th September 2010 at the Crown Inn Tinwell near Stamford.  The cup was won by the Chimera team four legs to one over the White Horse Hunters of Morcott.  Three players from Little Oakley, Barry Bright. David Bailey. Dave Ormshaw. All played for the Hunters, but to no avail Chimera were a far better all round team and on top form, still to come runners up in a competition between 60 league clubs is not a bad effort. 
The biggest chear of the night came right at the end of the match with the opposition on twelve points my doubles partner David Bailey had to carreau the on boule at a full 9 metres with our very last boule to stay in the match, great shooting David!.
But all to no avail, for up stepped Tony Moulding to play a superb high point stopping two inches from the cochonnet, game over, good bye.
The Hunters team would like to thank the Chimera team for making it a friendly and enjoyable final, and maybe if Little Oakley could enter the Rutland and district league with our village team we would do very well, but sadly the village is just one and a half miles outside the league boundry.
Barry.
