It is a source of tremendous regret that I must announce Amanda will not be providing physio cover next season for the first time in 13 years. This is because Brian and Amanda's contract at Handcross Farm is coming to an end and they are planning to relocate to the New Forest area. Fortunately she will see be around to help us at the forthcoming cup final and there will be a chance to say goodbye to her at the Awards Night.

She has played a key role in the club's playing success over this period, speeding the recovery of injured players and patching up the walking wounded always with a ready smile and a sense of humour.

Helping to ensure that Horsham is always able to field a competitive side has assisted two promotions to the highest level the club has achieved in 20 years and more recently three successive Bob Rogers Sussex Cup wins.

Over this length of time she has looked after hundreds of players and on behalf of them all may I would like to wish her every success for the future.
