It’s great to receive the 2016 Soup and Roll League Fixtures from the indefatigible duo of Trevor and Linda McDermot. Staged in beautiful villages these events are always excellently organised and a warm atmosphere duly created. Indeed at the last League race on December 2o at Kirkby Fleetham the race report ran:

A good showing by Lancashire WC at last Sunday’s combined Soup & Roll / Northern Winter League race, with their Masters too strong for Redcar and Yorkshire clubs in the overall team race.

The first race is on Sunday, February 14 in the village of Ingram, Northumberland, NE66 4LT, starting at 11.00 a.m over distances from 4km to 5/10 miles. As ever entry is free and a soup and roll lunch is provided. It’s the day after the Sam Shoebottom at Simister, but if you can double up it makes for a quality weekend.
