Kerrel has decided to hang up his boots after refereeing his last game just before Christmas. He has been a huge part of the society including taking part in Japan Leicestershire exchanges amongst many others. His commitment has been incredible to any game, Saturday, midweek and Sundays. 

He is still keen to coach, mentor and support the committee with his wealth of expertise. 

As a committee we decided to mark this occasion with a small memento for all his years of service to society.
