gsalmons Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 I'm just up the road in South Normanton! I've done Cockett several times and it's a great ground and very friendly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birds only is good, as a newbie I am pretty much just going out and hitting the practice rounds having some fun with the girls and my dad - not stepped into the comp world just yet. Looks like lots of local choice though best get some dates booked out with Mrs A Thank you all for the warm welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
labstaff Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 Welcome from another Derbyshire member, I'm not far from Ripley. Cocketts farm is definitely worth a round and doveridge isnt far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
