The Bracknell Nines in March 2022
This year the competition was run with other clubs joining us by Zoom. At one point, we had well over 60 people from the various clubs as well as our own members on the Zoom call.

We watched Maidenhead win the trophy yet again – this time by a much wider margin than last year. Bracknell came 5th on countback.
