John also played a huge role in setting up and running the Sarum League which has provided local competition for many clubs. John was a qualified referee and loved his annual job as a line-judge at Wimbledon.

| Floodlight League |
12.3.2009 |
This season the Floodlight League title race was unbelievably close, it all came down to the final 2 sets played in the match between St. Bernards and Labradors on Monday. After the first 2 rounds the score was 2-2, which meant St Bernards could still finsih 1st, 3rd or 5th in the league depending on whether they won both, one or none of the last two sets. (That's how close it was.)
During the final round of match, it started to rain, but there were no thoughts of abandoning as it wouldn't have been enough to win the title. In the knowledge that the title was in their hands, Martin, Tom Inman (Sarah's replacement), Dick & Lewis all stood up well under the pressure winning both sets leaving the Spaniels, Dobermans, Setters and Retrievers to rue the few missed points that cost them the title.
So congratulations to St Bernards for winning and thanks to everyone who played in league this winter.
Special mention must go to the Collies who only used one sub throughout the whole season - very impressive!!
