Over the weekend, we were devastated to learn of the passings of Pam Leach and Chris Potts.

Pam was a loyal member of Bury Sports Club club, in particular being a member of the tennis section and regularly attending cricket games at Radcliffe Road with Dave. Her association with the Sports Club went back over 50 years. Pam passed away peacefully in hospital on Friday, and everyone's thoughts are with Sam & Katie Leach and their families.

Chris Potts was well known to not only everyone at the club, but all of those in local cricket, for his character and humour. Chris was part of our 2014 Cross Cup winning squad, led the 2nd XI to promotion during a lengthy tenure as captain, before winning the 3rd XI Cup in his final year in the UK in 2019. Chris, 45, was taken from us in an accident in Zimbabwe. The clubs thoughts at this time are also with Patrick, Rachel, Henry and all of the family he leaves behind.
