The Warks County 2nd Team 2006 Season |
 |
|
After a difficult year in 2005 out of the haze came one Graham Hargreaves, a born organizer of men and Warwichshire to the core. It soon became very clear that no stone was going to be left unturned in this the County?s Centenary Year. Pre-season meetings took place at County Match Secretary Mark Smith?s home over the Winter and a lot of background work was put in culminating in a squad of around 36 being drawn up which consisted of the old guard, new kids on the block and those from the development squad.

'I think I have done all i can as an amateur, bar winning a major amateur title', said Rob after he finished his amateur golf with one of the grittiest halved matches he has ever played, on the last day of the 2006 County Finals. Just a week before, another Rob, Rob Bardsley, made this a double championship win very early in his young career.
