The 18th Wing Ding got underway in mid-November. Fourteen teams of ten players played in this frenetic running squash game where players have to get as many points as they can against each other team. In this annual charity event.
This year the costumes were again a mix of the weird, wonderful and scary including minions, green monsters and undertakers. The entertainment around the courts was truly brilliant even if in some cases there wasn’t too much to be left to the imagination with the outfits. The ISRC (Black) team took the top honours with their best costume.
