Happy Yorkshire Day
31st July
The club is sad to learn of the passing of David Hirst, one of the club’s Vice-Presidents.
David was a member of Wyke Temperance C.C. before that club’s demise in 1975 and so when he returned to the North after some years living in the South of the country he sought out that club’s former members, many of whom were by now involved at Woodlands. Invited to join the committee in 2002, David quickly became an active committee member and successfully chased and obtained grants for our developments.
In 2008 he obtained planning permission and launched a fund, with a generous donation, with a view to joining up the clubhouse and the sports hall but this was not met with the enthusiasm the plan deserved and it never got off the ground.
David continued to support the club on a regular basis until last year, even travelling to games from Ripon when in his 90s after he had moved to live there from Idle.
His funeral will be held at 11.30am on Monday 19th August at Maple Park crematorium between Ripon and Thirsk on the A61.
