MEMBERS PAY TRIBUTE TO ALAN....
We would like to send out our condolences to the Family of Alan Hopkinson, the Chairman and newly elected President of Bolehill Snooker Club who passed away recently. He was a great great man and will be sorely missed by all that knew him.
"He inspired players and always gave his all in whichever position he held at the club. He also actively encouraged snooker in Derbyshire and was a vital member of the snooker league.
It is such a sad day but he has brought happiness and laughs to the lives of many many people and who those who met him, will feel privileged they got to.
We hope you Rest in Peace Alan and you shall forever be loved and missed by all the members of the Bolehill Institute."
"A massive loss for all at the club, Alan was in many ways Mr Bolehill Institute, match nights won't be quite the same again without him calling round for his usual game of cards and a pint.
He always worked long and hard to see the club through to still be successfully operational today....and of course he was a longstanding captain for many years of the club's "No 1" snooker team, let's hope we can all continue his legacy..."
