Success at the Flyers Quiz 2019

Thank you to all the amazing Flyers who attended the 2019 Flyers Quiz held at Old Southendians Cricket Club last weekend (28th September). We are very grateful to the Cricket Club for providing the venue free of charge.

Eight teams keenly competed, not just to answer the fiendishly difficult questions, but also to provide the fantastic raffle prizes. These ranged from vouchers to a magnificent hamper, to copious amounts of alcohol.

Questions for the quiz included a variety of subjects including dinosaurs, literary cats and Wacky Races. The picture round had a common thread – which no team worked out – people mentioned in We Didn’t Start the Fire by Billy Joel.

Finish Line Fund Team set for London Marathon

It is with great excitement that we await this years London Marathon in the Capital on April 26th.

A night of Fun and Fund Raising at the Inter-club Quiz 2019

T’was the month before Christmas and all-round Southend not a runner was stirring, not even to bend.

Why you ask?

Because last night the 6th annual inter-club quiz run by the Finish Line Fund was taking place in the Westcliff Hotel and it raised any amazing £1,450 for the charity.

With 16 teams from running clubs across the region, over 152 questions prepared, amazing raffle prizes up for grabs and bar staff ready to take orders the evening kicked off at 8 pm. Finish Line Fund Chairman Keith Passingham welcomed everyone and handed over to Scotty ‘Quizmaster’ Brenton to begin testing our brains.
