Petersfield's local news

Local news for Monday 8th June

Last weekend saw the annual Petersfield Football Club's Junior awards. The event recognises the best achievements from the Under 8s to the Under 16s boys and girls teams. Shine Radio is there to listen to player's accounts of their season as well as coach Rob Fleming and chairman Nick Orr. https://www.petersfieldtownfc.co.uk/ And our victorious women's senior side are league title winners again! The Rams are back to back champions leaping 2 divisions in just 2 seasons. Kevin pays a visit to Steep Lawn tennis club's open day armed with a dusted off racquet. We catch up with chairman Andrew Carnegie about the event and Jen Pigden tells us how the teams have fared over the winter and summer leagues. https://clubspark.lta.org.uk/SteepLawnTennisClub . The standard of Petersfield rugby is on an unbelievable upward trajectory right now and a selection of no less than 6 Petersfield players in to the Hampshire side is the perfect indicator. This weekend our super six take on Leicestershire at Twickenham for the Bill Beaumont trophy. https://www.petersfieldrfc.club/ . We also catch up on the latest news from the rugby club with their very ambitious plans heading into their centenary year. In cricket the men's first side have had themselves the perfect start, an impressive 3 wins from 3 but more striking than this headline, is the manner in which they are brushing aside the opposition. https://www.petersfieldcricket.club/ .

The Joy family are all involved with motorcycling - even the dog!

They have set up a new group - the Joys of Motorcycling - and already have over 120 followers.

It's where local motorbike enthusiasts can share memories, adventures, photos of trips away -   whether you have a bike or not.

Speaking to Mike Waddington at the Seven Stars in Stroud, Martin Joy, who works with bikes too, speaks about the freedom of motorcycling and the lift it brings.

Mike also speaks to Justin from Mental Health Motorbikes.

Justin is a Mental Health First Aider and speaks about how the pressures of everyday life - whatever problems you're having - can be relieved through the motorbike.

Justin says it all comes from understanding the community.
