Ryan Stockton, Captain of the men’s 3rd team commented: “Obviously we are delighted that promotion to the league above has been confirmed as we played extremely well last season and deserved it. Next season will be a challenge, but we have some really talented young players coming through who continue to learn from our older more experienced members, which seems to benefit the team.”
