Friday the 25th September saw the gathering of the all conquering Hill's Supertigers for the annual 'Club Champion Dinner'. Again held at the very hospitable Woodside Hotel, the Supertigers and guests enjoyed an evening of fine dining and thirst quenching beverages.
But the night was to celebrate the achievements of the undefeated Supertigers and their star performers.
2009 Club Champion
The voting was extremely tight throughout the count with the most valuable player for each game being awarded 7 votes...in a tight run to the line Simon Kemp was awarded the 2009 Club Champion Award by 1 vote from the fast finishing Dave 'Runt' Wuttke. The result was not clear until the counting of the final vote of the evening...maybe a slight set up?
