take part in the Round Tables National Sporting Weekend. we were joined by guys from North Walsham and Dereham, also from area 6.
Birmingham saw over 500 tablers compete in a number of sprts, before a Gala dinner and a casual few drinks to wash it down!
Hunstanton were the highest achievers of area 6, coming 3rd in the 5 a side football. The finale to the sports for the day was the Tug of War, which was a joint effort from North Walsham and Hunstanton.
A great weekend had by all, and we hope to see the National sports weekend back to the founders area in the near future!

Chairman Carries Olympic Torch
Hunstanton Round Table Chairman, Kevin Waddison, carries the Olympic torch!
Kevin was nominated to carry the Olympic torch, on behalf of the Hunstanton round Table, because of his voluntary within the community. Kevin carried the torch along part of the running track at Lynn Sport, then into the car park, where he was able to conquer his overexertion on a bus ride to Sandringham so the next torch bearer could take over.
Kevin's nomination story
At the time of the relay Kevin will be Chairman of Hunstanton Round Table which raises and donates £20,000 per year for local good causes in Norfolk, he has been a key member for many years. He is also secretary of the East Anglian Round Table committee. This area as a whole raises hundreds of thousands of pounds for good causes and charitable donations of many kinds to benefit their community. Round Table is a world wide organisation that was formed in Norfolk and it would be great for the organisation to be recognised, especially the Hunstanton organisation which raises the most money from any Anglian Round Table via several charitable events such as car rallies, endurance events etc. Kevin and his brilliant tablers give up Christmas morning for a huge charitable swim at Hunstanton which over 150 people participate in and the organisation also organises a huge bonfire night for the community at excellent prices so everyone can attend. Over the years the boys have given money to RNLI, Hospitals, Local sports groups, Scouts, Individual cases and many, many more besides and a look at the website www.hunstanonroundtable.com should help you make judgement. I am sure that this would also be an excellent gesture for Kevin as chairman and for Round Table in its founding area as a whole and hope that you would consider this a worthy choice. Many thanks Andrew Bingham

HUNSTANTON ROUNDTABLE RYDER CUP SEARLE’S
elite squad junior golfers faced up to the Hunstanton Round Table for The Richard Searle Trophy for the fourth year running in a Ryder Cup four-ball betterball format.
The juniors were looking for revenge after the 6½ to 3½ TRASHING! last year.
But once again they tried and failed to over come the more fitter!! And skilful!! Table lads who were very sporting towards there young counterparts and in no way as some of them said did we ever try to put them off or push them in to the bunkers and ditches!!
As usual the round table lads showed no mercy to those pesky kids!! The captains of both teams start the match off Both sides were evenly-matched in the opening stages, however the Hunstanton Round Table team dominated the later matches, and finally took the match 6.5 points to 4.5 out of 11.to retain the Ryder cup which was gracefully and in no way provocative!!! Lifted aloft! by team captain Joe bates to a massive cheer and a few boos from the kids parents!! They Really need to grow up!!
