Keith Forder Memorial Cup
At the 2011 AGM, Tina Lawrence proposed that the Club purchase a trophy called the Keith Forder Memorial Cup to be presented to the winner of a sporting competition at a rally each year. |
Keith was a founder member of the Club and sadly passed away at the end of 2010. One of the last rallies he attended was the Spring Bank holiday rally where he supervised the boules competition.
2011 A game of boules was played at the Spring Bank Holiday rally at Ratley . The winners of the trophy were Allan & Jackie Jenkins | |
2012 Another game of boules was held at the end of May rally at Chipping Ongar. Last years runners up, Bill & Maggi Challis won the trophy this year. | |
The winners of the 2013 boules competition held at the Chinese Rally in August were Ray & Sheila Richards who had a tough final against runners up, Brian & Sylvia Collins. Our Chairman, Allan Jenkins presented them with the cup. |

The boules competition was held at the Cream Tea Rally in 2014. David Herriott, using his left hand to represent Hazel (as she had a leg injury) and his right hand for himself made it through to the final but was beaten by Jackie & Allan Jenkins who were then presented with the trophy by Ray Richards. | |
2015 boules competition was held at the Three Magpies Rally - the competition was won by Dennis & Jo Underwood. Sadly they couldn't be presented with the trophy as it had been left at home so they settled for a mug of tea! | |
In 2016 we held the competition at the Scone Rally. This time we held a Kubb competition as the field was not flat enough for boules. The winners were Steve & Madeline Barrett who received the cup for our Chairman Ros Barsley |
