Call for marshals! We need volunteers for a variety of different roles not only for the Trent 5 which takes place on Wednesday 25^th May but also for Summer League 3 on Wednesday, 15^th June. Sophie Eadsforth has kindly volunteered to be Chief Marshal for the Trent 5 and will put a call out on Facebook.
