Looking for recommendations for outdoor gym equipment suppliers/installers for a primary school. Anyone got companies they've used/would recommend? @activesussex

Highlights - Haywards Heath 1st XI vs Bognor Regis 1st XI https://t.co/Hyh2rRmwl9 via @YouTube You even get commentary by JJ too :) @HaywardsHeathCC

[DaveSimmonds @DaveSimmonds77]

Well done to all the players & thanks to the @WardenParkPE staff & @wardenpark teachers who gave up their Friday night to support the boys 👏👏

[Sussex Schools FA @SussexSchoolsFA]

Winners of our u14 boys shield... @wardenpark

[DaveSimmonds @DaveSimmonds77]

Not had a mad week like this for a while. District sports, two cricket comps, school trip to Wakehurst, Y4 MTC, writing observations, EHC plans, Twilight PDM, reports to finish... and life to live! Credit to all those primary PE co-ordinators who balance PE & class-teaching! 💪

[DaveSimmonds @DaveSimmonds77]

Top day of cricket today 👏

[Haywards Heath CC @HaywardsHeathCC]

WWWWW

The first time ever we’ve won all 5 league games 😍

I’ll leave it there and enjoy the Quiz evening 😘

Congratulations. Well done boys!

Meanwhile @SkySportsTennis @the_LTA support for state primary schools' tennis continues to dwindle year-on-year to almost nothing! Soon, there will be a generation who have no interest/awareness of tennis in the UK. #Priorities

[Sky Sports Tennis @SkySportsTennis]

Will it become Raducanu Ridge or maybe Draper Dip? 🤔

@FightingTalk316 @rickedwards1 @thomgibbs @tamsingreenway @douglaschats @CarlDonnelly I'm pretty sure both Ait-Nouri & Cunha's displays of utter playground petulance last Saturday will earn them a place on Santa's 'naughty list'. Which other sports people deserve a place on Santa's 'naughty list' after the ir behaviour in 2024?

[DaveSimmonds @DaveSimmonds77]

@FightingTalk316 @rickedwards1 @KatharineMerry @SteffanPowell @mrjakedwood @neildelamere With @FightingTalk316 being live this Saturday, I'll be able to listen to it whilst tidying up after organising the local primary schools' cross-country competition. What is the best sporting event that takes ages to organise but is over in a matter of minutes?

[DaveSimmonds @DaveSimmonds77]

@ProTotSports Fierce competition and great fun under a watchful eye 😂

[DaveSimmonds @DaveSimmonds77]

Seems like a safeguarding issue to me. @SussexCountyFA

[DaveSimmonds @DaveSimmonds77]

@SussexCountyFA Is it acceptable to play an u14 county cup game at a venue with no toilets, no changing rooms and that has not access to the field for an ambulance? IMO it shouldn’t be. #grassrootsfootball

[DaveSimmonds @DaveSimmonds77]

Love it! Best Ashes series of all time.

RT @OfficialBHAFC: Albion will face @CrawleyTown at home in Round Two of the @Carabao_Cup. 🏆🔜

@HaywardsHeathCC @SussexCricketFd @scbadger @cric_SPL We've had to make the difficult decision to cancel our planned Haywards Heath 5th friendly for tomorrow - due to a lack of time - so we are no longer looking. Another Saturday with a pitch booked, the outfield cut, a team selected, but no cricket ☹️

[DaveSimmonds @DaveSimmonds77]

Friday cancellation, second week in a row. Really sad times that some clubs consider this to be acceptable/respectful practice. ☹️

[Haywards Heath CC @HaywardsHeathCC]

Haywards Heath 5th XI are now looking for opposition due to a very last minute friendly cancellation.
We have a ground (Astro) and team all ready to play a 40/40 from 13.00?

Is anyone else looking for a game pls? 👀

@SussexCricketFd
@scbadger
@cric_SPL
Reposts welcome pls

[Haywards Heath CC @HaywardsHeathCC]

Our 5th XI have lost two opponents today so have a side and venue available for tomorrow, Sat 27
Anyone out there looking for a game? 🤞

[DaveSimmonds @DaveSimmonds77]

@SussexCricketLg @scbadger Any team available for a friendly v @HaywardsHeathCC 5s tomorrow (Sat 27th). We’ve ‘arranged’ four different games this week, only for opponents to pull up fur various reasons. Venue booked, team selected, outfield cut.

[DaveSimmonds @DaveSimmonds77]

Olympic fever never fails to draw me in. Normally, I'd never watch a game of rugby and here I am watching a 3rd 7s game in a row! 🤣 #olympicspirit @Paris2024

[DaveSimmonds @DaveSimmonds77]

@CuckfieldCC @HaywardsHeathCC are looking for a 5th XI game.
