Helliar Trophy - February 2013 Results

Congratulations to Roger Bright, Bob Hair, Jill Hair and Paddy Murray from Thorpe Bay who are this year's winners of the Helliar Trophy. Further congratulations to the team, who along with their Club teammates - Richard Register, Graham Foster, Yvonne Dias and Allan Greenstein -  are the first recipients of the new Ray Cornell Prize and will represent Essex at the 2013 Garden Cities Qualifier.

Thanks to the kind generosity of Mrs Barbara Cornell, the ECBA is able to establish the “Ray Cornell Prize” which will be presented annually to the club whose teams achieve the best combined results and are going forward to represent Essex in the Garden Cities. The award is aimed at helping to offset the expenses of the eight team members involved. Any remainder will be used by the club to help their club players to enter ECBA events.
