At home again on Saturday, June 13, Ninfield beat Herstmonceux 61 - 58. Their final game of the week against Bexhill on
Sunday, June 14, saw them lose 84 - 91. I am told that many cups of tea and quite a few biscuits have been consumed this week to keep the club on their toes!

Afternoon tea will be served and trophies will be awarded to the winning club and runner up.
