Carluke FC Presentation Night
On Friday 23rd of January we attended Carluke FC to present the members with their trophies for season 2014. Like most days in January the weather was changeable and this was no different with heavy snow forecast for the later part of the evening, which materialised as we were leaving.
The members thanked myself and my dad for our attendance and after a chat to those present we got down to presenting their beautiful trophies, followed by a bite to eat. Well done to those members that took the time to attend and support their club. The main event of every club’s season should be their presentation night, to recognise and congratulate those that have come to the fore. Carluke had a fantastic year at National level, possibly the best National performances gained in any of Lanarkshire Federation clubs 2014. Those members who took the time to attend made it a good night and should be congratulated for their commitment and dedication to keeping the tradition of Carluke FC.
