| The World Cup Final - 9th July
2006
Back
to Eversden Events
Football fans filled the village hall to watch the World Cup Final projected on to the wall at the back of the stage. The event was a fund-raiser for the new Tennis Club and marked the finale of the great World Cup Competition master-minded in the village and followed avidly by entrants from around the world. Loyalties were divided - with many neutrals - but there was a strong contingent of French support. A superb meal was served at half-time. Extra time, a sad sending-off, and penalties preceded the presentations to the winners (see Clubs - Tennis Club) and a quiet cry into the beer or muted celebration. A brilliant event demonstrating the energy of the Tennis Club and also the versatility of the village hall as a venue. |
