The traditional Logistex end of year table football tournament was held at our Kettering offices and drew spectators in from all across the country.
Held on a knock out basis, teams of two took each other on in a series of first to five goal matches with the final being suitably increased to ten goals. Matches were mixed and various from 5-0 wins over before most of the spectators had returned to their places, to closely fought out marathons won by a single goal.
The final saw the teams of Jerry Woodhouse and Derek Kay play Inde Sagoo and Neil Chambers. The tightly fought match with much ball activity, regular air flighted ball movements and much excitement by Jerry throughout the game saw the team Jerry and Derek come out on top 10-6 winners, a sure result.
We would like to wish everyone all the best for the holidays and a safe and prosperous 2012.
