The
Cape committee and families, fly to Spain once a year, to compete in
a Memorial Pool match in memory of Football club President, Brian
Heyes, who sadly passed away May 23rd 2014. Brian was living in
Spain with his wife Janice, before falling ill, and he made many
friends in his time living in Spain, and they thankfully organise the annual
competition, playfully called 'The Tosser Cup' after Brians great
sense of humour. 2021
Tosser Cup from Spain to Capenhurst Because
of Covid, the 'Tosser Cup' was called off
last year 2020. So because of travel resrictions still in place, a
decision was made, to play the Brian Heyes Memorial Pool match in the
UK this year, at our newly refurbed Capenhurst Clubhouse. It was
deemed a big success, but obviously not as nice as a visit to Spain
would have been. But 17 people took part and Brians sons and
grandkids were present, along with his wife Janice, who came over
from Spain. As always a good day was had by all, and to top it off,
Capenhurst Villa Chairman, and long time friend of Brians, John
McHugh (Gooey) won the trophy. He must now travel to Spain next
year, to defend his crown. Here's
a few pics from the day:

in Spain 2015
A posse from
the Cape committee flew to Spain to compete in a Memorial Pool match, in
memory of Football club President, Brian Heyes, who sadly passed away
May 23rd 2014.
There were
22 players, entered into the well organised contest. Run seamlessly by
some of Brians great friends, during his time living in Spain.
And it was a
fitting end to the evening, when long time, and great friend of Brians,
Frank Andrews WON the trophy in its first year, playfully named the "Tosser Cup"
in memory of Brians great sense of humour.
A great time
was had by all, as the matches started at 4pm and went on well into
the night.
The Trophy
will take place annually, so it looks like we'll be there next year, damn
:) !!
