Very satisfying to have a full house this morning for the Summer Leagues. In fact, two players were kind enough to relegate themselves to the bench!

Our Summer Leagues have been very well attended this season - and we're extremely grateful to all our regulars for their continued support.

Day 1. Say 'goodbye' 😢. The old carpet, batons and grippers are removed:

Day 2. The existing underlay (replaced in 2019) is repositioned, retaped and ridges/kinks flattened out. The new carpet is delivered:

Day 3. The underlay is vacuumed and the first of 8 rolls of carpet is positioned. The sewing machine is poised!:

Day 4. All shiny and new (with the exception of the top end banking, which will be installed on Friday 2nd May).

We are indebted to Be Active Wales for the 50% contribution towards the overall cost of the new carpet; and to Matt White of Swansea Council Volunteer Service for his help with the project.
