Goodson's Sporty Summer
It's been a summer full of activity as residents take part in and spectate some of their favourite sporting events
As preparation for the Wimbledon Men's Final, residents took part in their own hand tennis match before settling down with a Wimbledon tradition, strawberries and cream, to enjoy the real thing!
Later in the month, we could hardly contain our excitement at the success the England team enjoyed in the Euros. We couldn’t quite bring it home but the lads did their country proud! They are a young and very talented team so the whole world better watch out next year!
One of our female residents had fond memories of the last time England saw success in the 1966 World Cup Final against Germany.
And they were not the only winners! Congratulations to Cyril and Marion who won the sweepstake in their respective households!
Finally, to round off our super sporting month, we are only at the halfway stage of the Tokyo Olympics and already Team GB are smashing records! Not to mention the carpet bowls that residents enjoyed in the Goodson Olympics!
