Interested in Playing or organising Sporting Teams?
We have Old Millfieldian teams playing in a variety of sports and these are supported by the Society. If you're interested in playing or being part of any of this, please get directly in touch with the OMs listed below. Furthermore, if you'd like us to consider supporting an activity that's not named, please contact John Davies at the Society Office.
Rugby
Alan Burns (a former Millfield parent - millfield.academy@virgin.net) directs an ambitious Millfield Old Boys' RFC league and sevens programme, involving OMs with all levels of rugby ability, including 'veterans', and competitions overseas too.
Golf
Richard Champion (Day 1977-82) has recently set up the Old Millfieldian Golfing Society. All golfing OMs, men and ladies, are most welcome to join, and this can be done via the OMGS website www.oldmillfieldiangolfingsociety.co.uk. The society is steadily building up its membership.
There will be a summer meeting at Walton Heath on Friday 10 June 2011, and details of this event are also on the website.
Richard would very much like to hear from all golfing OMs and so please do contact him on: secretary@omgs.co.uk
Gavin Bradbury (1981-83; Kingweston - gavinbradbury@aol.com) runs our Grafton Morrish Men's Team and Margaret Hawker (former tutor - margaret.hawker@tesco.net ) our Silver Tassie Ladies' one, both playing in national independent schools' knock-out competitions.
OMS runs popular golf days and, if you'd like to receive details and are not on our 'golf list', kindly advise us.
Cricket
Nick Brothers (Edgarley & Shapwick; 1994-2001) has just taken on the responsibility for the newly formed MOBCC and he is looking forward to hearing from cricketers to compete in the national Old Boys Cricket Competition. Phone Nick on 07900 245167 or email him on nick@nbcapital.co.uk
Soccer
Jaimie Cork (2000-02; Georgian Cottage - corkuk@hotmail.com ) is in charge of our newly established Team which plays in a local London League. He is hoping to extend this to 2 Teams.
Squash
Steve Illingworth (1978-80; Chindit - stephen.illingworth@blueyonder.co.uk) captains our Londonderry Cup Squad in a national knock-out competition, reaching the Final in its first year.
Tennis
Like cricket, there is a national competition and we should be able to produce a useful team. But we need an organiser - ?
