Saturday 21st June – Social @ The ANG

Our first social of the season will be down at the club after the game. The 1st XI are at home to Ightham, 2’s Away to Pembury, and 3’s at Home against Shoreham, so all pretty local.

There will be a BBQ, Bar, and games, music throughout the evening. For social events like this in the past, we have made it a fancy dress event, therefore we will be sticking with that. It just so happens that day is our Captain Anthony Bouffe’s Birthday, therefore, the theme will be AB, so dress up as anything starting with an A or B.

The awards for 2024 will also be handed out.
