Evening News Norwich Sunday League teams enjoyed their crowning glory after one of the most difficult seasons on record. Honours were handed out to mark the final acts of a campaign decimated by drought, snow and ice. Evening News sports writer Milton Lindsay, a guest at the dinner at the Holiday Inn Hotel, paid tribute to the league for a gargantuan behind-the-scenes effort to bring the season to a satisfactory conclusion. Four divisions had to be decided on points average, the first time the method had been employed since the long hot summer of 1976, but the placings would probably have been the same even if all the games had been completed. Some teams had up to 12 games postponed because of the crisis, which had placed a question mark over the staging of the The Pink Un League Cup. “But you stuck to your guns, refused to be beaten, the weather Gods finally relented and you were rewarded with a cracking final won by the Grove,” said Milton. He congratulated secretary Ben Casey for an outstanding first season since following Alan Williams and told fixture secretary Bernie Hardiman, who at one point was grappling with 400 unplayed fixtures. “You played a blinder. Next season will be your 40th in the job and you deserve an easier ride.” PICTURES AND ARTICLE COURTESEY OF ARCHANT
