Brian Ball passed away on September 8th. He celebrated his 80th birthday on Valentine's Day this year which had been his goal for the last four years since he was diagnosed with bone cancer.
I am sure many of us will have stories about Brian. It has been said that he was vaccinated with a gramophone needle.
Two teams from West Park started in 1973-74, but Brian wasn't sure that he played in the first couple of them. Two teams became one in 1977-78 with Brian becoming secretary the following season until 1982-83 their final season. He reappeared after a few seasons with various teams, spending his last few with Sinners. He introduced his son Stephen to the League and they played together in the Pleiades team in the 1990s.
He served the League as Vice Chairman from 2002-2008 and took responsibility for our question submissions to MQL for a few seasons around that time.
