The Team Members

John Havercroft - The Squire of the team and a fine leader. He teaches languages and has found escape from the disorder of the classroom in his boat. He has special knowledge of the world of rare and old books.

Paul Beaumont – Team Fool and may one day be the Squire of the Morris Ring. Paul teaches generations of primary school children having been a children's entertainer. If you are very lucky he may read you some of his poetry. See http://schoolofeverything.com/teacher/paulbeaumont

Jon Wimhurst - Bagman. The team owes its existence to his commitment in keeping in touch with all so CONTACT HIM NOW. He spends his spare time from his family and the Morris, at a printing firm which is jolly handy in producing our annual programme.

Roger Hill - is our bagman for our Day of Dance. (See our events and his contact details) He has friends and family all over the world and his 4x4 shows the battle scars from riots in distant lands and encounters with exotic large wild-life.   

Stephen Collingwood - Currently foreman as a result of having danced the Morris for longer than he can remember. When not dressed in baldricks and bells, he earns a living as an EHO sorting out 'Lives of Grime', and he sings with the East Surrey Choral Society (http://www.escs.org.uk/ ) and St Matthews Church choir.

Rob Jukes - Is the youngest member so can jump the highest and can do a good mimic of an ape. He sells the finest and best photographic equipment known to mankind and has productive relations with Old  Palace, our local women's Morris side.  

John Beckford - Treasurer and so not to be crossed. He maintains our accounts which is a task that is recognised only once per AGM. Corner him in a quiet part of a pub for rewarding discourses on any subject.

Malcolm Hill - You may not immediately recognise him as he may be disguised as a Wild Boar from the Great North Wood. He has been  well restored by a friend from the National Opera. His skills as a St Johns ambulance medic have not to date been tested by any of us....

David Williams - is doggedly learning the complexity of Morris dancing. He is now semi-retired having spent over 40 years working with computers. The emblem on the back of his waistcoat depicts this with a famous cartoon and the caption, "Hit any Key !" 

Ben Roberts is now our newest member and is learning the dancing well. He is carried out a complex unaccompanied manoeuvre on ice in front of an astonished public before Christmas. He is recovering well,  practising safely indoors and will be ready to be launched with the rest of us this coming May.
