Why Rounders?

On Victory in Europe (VE) Day 1945 the people of Sampford Spiney celebrated with a rounders match for which a Challenge Shield was awarded to the winners. The shield vanished only to re-appear recently in the bottom of a box of dusty church records! Plasterdown Grouped Parish Council decided to re-invigorate this event to celebrate the coronation of King Charles III on the anniversaries of VE Day and 50 years since the formation of the Parish Council.
