Following another successful tournament in 2009, the Walker Cup, Ladies/Juniors Trophy and Walker Trophy will be held over three separate days in 2010.  I am sure Old Minchendenians will be keen to retain the cup this year.

Entry fee is £60 per team for each competition


WALKER
CUP THURSDAY 15th JULY
 
12 teams will contest the Walker Cup, which is aimed at regular/serious footballers.  A squad of 7 players is recommended and each Team will play a minimum of 5×10 minute matches.
 

WALKER LADIES/JUNIOR TROPY WEDNESDAY 14TH JULY
 
This year we hope to run Ladies and Juniors tournaments provided we receive enough interest.


WALKER TROPHY TUESDAY 13TH JULY

This competition is aimed at the less serious competitors and any player displaying talent or significant levels of fitness will be sent off immediately.  A squad of 10 players is recommended with unlimited substitutions.  Ideal contestants will not have played football seriously for many years and a “physical” approach to the game will be frowned upon.

 
 
 WALKER GROUND
The Walker Ground is a beautiful sporting oasis in Southgate, close to Arnos Grove Tube Station. It is home to Southgate Cricket Club and hosts Middlesex CC for first class matches. Post match food will be available from the Walker Café and we hope teams will enjoy a post-match beer or two from our selection of cask conditioned ales and chilled lagers.  This part of the evening is as important as the football itself.  See www.thewalkerground.co.uk and “Pictures”.
 
 
 
 WALKER TRUST 
 
 

The Walker Cricket Ground Trust is a registered charity dedicated to maintaining the ground for the benefit of the people of Southgate.  This event will raise much needed finance for the Trust and your support would be appreciated.

REPORT: Walker Netball Tournament 2009

SATURDAY 29th AUGUST 2009

@ The Walker Ground, Waterfall Road, Southgate, London, N14 7JZ

A fantastic sunny day at The Walker Ground welcomed over 50 to 60 netball players / umpires / spectators for the first full use of their 2 new resurfaced netball courts for the first annual Walker Netball Rally.

Even though there was insufficient juniors to run the separate Walker Junior Tournament this year – many juniors joined the adult teams and enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and experience with their club team mates in the Main Walker Cup.

Oakwood Dolly Mixtures fielded not only a Mother and Daughter duo – but also Grandmother and Grand daughter too! They had plenty of support from their main Oakwood team on the sidelines.

Other teams from in and around London enjoyed the playing surface –  with games played on a league basis, followed by placing play-offs – culminating with semi finals between Oakwood and Pink Ladies plus Minchenden and Falcons.

Finalists Oakwood and Falcons had a very close deciding match with only one goal separating them during most of the game. Final score 9-8 to Falcons.

Thanks to all the teams, players, umpires, captains and spectators – hope to see you all next year. Keep watching www.thewalkerground.co.uk for all event details. Contact Lynda.Colt@thewalkerground.co.uk for hiring details.

There was the opportunity for non-club / new prospective players to come and Have a Go at Netball – whether they used to play or just fancied Giving it a Go. Several girls / ladies have been signed up for the Enfield Council Back To Netball courses – refer to Jan.Hickman@enfield.gov.uk for more details.

Thanks to England Netball for supplying raffle prizes which included Netball World Series Tickets and official Netballs – won by Minchenden and Old Fincunions players. Walker Ground Trustees and Southgate Squash & Racketball Club donated prizes which were won by 2 of the ‘Back to Netball’ Ladies.

The Walker Ground – Tennis/Netball Court Project – would like to thank Palmers Green High School, Arthur Ashby Foundation, private donator and members of the Weld Tennis club – as well as Enfield Youth Opportunity Fund – refer to Pink.Ross@enfield.gov.uk for your chance of funding.
