Presentations to secretary Bert Tapp and captain Bert Garratt were surprise highlights at Castlethorpe F.C.’s celebrations last Saturday at the “Carrington Arms”. The past season was the most successful in the short history of this village club – winning the first and third divisions of the North Bucks League and the Stantonbury Charity Cup. Mr. Tapp was handed a wristlet watch by Mr. Garratt, the captain expressing the appreciation of players, officials, and supporters for the hard work during the season. Then Mr. Garratt got a surprise being handed a condiment set on silver stand – a tribute to his leadership.

An enjoyable evening was spent with music by Mr. Pidgen, of New Bradwell.
