Cubs Do The Double

The 43rd cubs football team have had a fantastic season in 2005/06, there has been much discussion over the reason behind their success. Perhaps it has been the inspirational leadership of manager Paul Rigby, or dubious refereeing decisions of the vertically challenged referee? But the truth is we just had a great team of lads and you can read all about our double achievement in the Match Report.

On Saturday 15h of October the 43rd Scouts invaded the Buck countryside, after some 6 weeks of preparation including brushing up on map reading and first aid skills the lads completed the hike across the Chilterns.

Check out the Photos on the Scout Hike Page.

Is this some kind of medieval torture? or has the Scout Leadership finally taken its revenge by not only booking a training camp amidst the pouring rain and howling winds or Gilwell Park In March, plus stuck the scouts on top of some crates!

A team of 6 cubs from the 43rd EFS St Thomas of Canterbury church, Woodford Green beat teams from 11 districts to win the Greater London North East trophy. The team who had previously won the Epping Forest South District heat scored 101 points out of a maximum 110. Speaking after the quiz held at Bancroft's School, assistant district commissioner for Cubs Rob Rose said "the cubs were a credit to the district, the cub pack and their schools".
