Hemyock

‘Requiem Mass’ by Mozart was the work chosen by Hemyock Singers for their Spring concert presented at St Mary’s Hemyock and the previous evening at Uffculme parish church.

The Hemyock Tennis Club Men's Team recently won the local Stones Winter League sponsored by Stones Solicitors.

Dear Member, The new season is upon us and, with all our new facilities now in place (courts, pavilion and floodlights), it should be a good one!  As you will see below, the committee has been working hard to develop the club and get more people playing tennis.

At the annual general meeting of Hemyock Singers the decision was made to look at formalising the separation of the Group.

Reflecting on the history of Singers, Chairman, Janice Bawler, reminded the meeting how the group had evolved over almost 40 years. What had begun as a Music Appreciation Club within Hemyock Leisure Centre had grown into a highly successful Society putting on choral concerts and on stage, award winning musicals. Today the success continues with entertaining concerts, plays and pantomimes.

The Tennis Club are having an Open Evening on May 1st from 6:30 onwards, at Longmead, with a local sports shop providing rackets or racquets to try out.  There will be light refreshments in the Pavilion afterwards.  Non-members and members are welcome

In wintry conditions at Amory Park, Hemyock under-8s lost 5-2 to well organised Twyford.

With the score at 3-2 Hemyock tried hard to get back into the game, but despite going close, left space at the back for Twyford to add to their tally and win in style.Joe Hurley scored both goals and was the pick of the Hemyock players.
