Lawrence Whittaker has reported as follows:
The Nottingham team of Omied Hallam, Edward Hine and Philippine Geissler have won the 26pt AC East Midlands Federation League for 2013, beating both Leicester and Ashby 3-0. This qualifies Nottingham for the Secretary's Shield competition in 2014, whether or not they win it in 2013.
Another Nottingham win, to keep the club alive in all the national competitions it entered this year! We meet Tyneside in the semi-final of the Murphy Shield.
