Mid-Thames Trophy

Desborough, Littleton, Staines and Laleham sailing clubs compete annually for the Mid-Thames Trophy; we have been iinvited to join this event.
Members may remember that we used to sail with Sou’West SC until they lost their clubhouse on Platts Eyot and joined Desborough SC.
The Mid-Thames Trophy is an inter-club event (NOT team racing) for fun and and a social get together with the trophy going to the winning club; at least 10 boats per club may enter with the leading 3 to 5 boats from each club counting.
Clubs take turns to host the event and this year Desborough have scheduled it for Sunday 6 May (the May Bank Holiday weekend).
It should make an enjoyable addition to our programme and I hope we can field a good size team.
