SLS Past President’s Championship Cup 2022 – The biggest and best yet!

O

n 16th June, Surrey Law Society members returned to the Daytona Raceway at Sandown Park for the 3rd Past President’s Championship Cup. Over 60 drivers, totalling 20 teams, battled it out to make the podium in this year’s 1.5-hour endurance race. It was bumper to bumper action from the start with so many on the track and there was no shortage of competitive spirit between all those who raced. In the end it was Gordons Koopa Troopas who triumphed, followed by Go Kart of Go Home, comprising drivers from SLS Patron Landmark Information, and in third, another Gordons team, Gordons Neat. This was a toughly fought contest between the 20 teams, with many different tactics deployed by our drivers to try and win the hotly contested trophy.

It wasn’t all about the racing though and those who came to spectate, enjoyed a delicious buffet of pulled pork baps and macaroni cheese, drinks and networking, whilst also listening to the commentary from the team at Daytona and enjoying a beautiful sunset over the track. The evening concluded with our podium presentation to the winners and a speech delivered by SLS President Madeleine Beresford.

This year, we were particularly pleased to welcome friends from Kent Law Society to the event, and were delighted that KLS President, Nick Fairweather, could join the fun. His team, the Kent Cruisers, came a very respectable 11th, a great result for their first time at the event.

A great evening had by all.

Kent Law Society President, Nick Fairweather with SLS President, Maddie Beresford.

As always, we would like to extend our sincere thanks to the SLS patrons who sponsored this fantastic event, Evelyn Partners, Landmark Information Group, Tower Street Finance and LawSure Insurance. We would also like to congratulate Kyle Perreaux from Elite Law Solicitors who cracked the LawSure safe to win a bottle of champagne!

John Hutton-Attenborough and Alex Nieslen from SLS Patron, Evelyn Partners.
