[UCCBball] First Game Results, Future Fixtures

[Alwyn Nixon-Lloyd]

hmm.

sorry about not turning up. i have a maths test in half an hour that i
attempted to study for. however, with the amount that i did study, i
probably should have gone and played basketball.  

I agree with CComan.  a roster is a good idea.  

with the jearsys pu UCC on them on the front or somewhere perhaps?

anyway. 

have fun
Alwyn
