Team performance Officers’ Match – winner George Barron Thanks The event was organised by the England Team Manager, Richard Slater – and thanks must go to him for organising such a successful and enjoyable event. In his speech, Welsh Team Captain, Geoff Thompson thanked the organisers, his team and team officers – and also his wife Lindsay – for their support and commitment. It was indeed a friendly and much enjoyed – though challenging – event. Minute’s Silence Prior to the teams’ parade down to the boats on match morning a minute’s silence was held in memory of the four Welsh miners who lost their lives in the Gleision drift mine in Cilybebyll, Pontardawe – and the Piper played a lament.
