Our Main Pavilion has begun an internal decor uplift programme with the bar now being managed by Mr Rob Lowry – who personally recommends trying the new cask ales, whilst enjoying the Sky / Setanta Sports – Football World Cup, Cricket, Wimbledon etc.

The upgrade of the tennis court surfaces and NEW Floodlights provide a better surface and extended evening availability for both tennis and netball for the Weld Lawn Tennis Club and other users such as Palmers Green High School. The tennis pavilion is also undergoing improvements both internall and externally.

Sunday 14th February 2010 will go down as a momentous day in the Walker Grounds one hundred year history as two of its members became British Champions. 

Alison Waters and Mark Cowley of Southgate Squash Club both came away with titles at the British National Squash Championships held at Sportcity in Manchester last weeked.  Alison won the Women’s Title and Mark the Men’s Over 55 event.

Both matches will probably go down as the most exciting of the thirteen finals that took place that day, with Alison (World Number 5) and Mark both finding themseleves with ‘Match Ball’ down at various times.  Mark (England Over 55 No 1) was actually 2-0 down in games and 6-1 down in points and clawed his way back to win in what must have been one of the biggest ‘comebacks’ of the tournament. 

The Walker Ground Trustees and membership would like to congratulate Mark and Alison on their terrfiic achievements.

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.

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.
