In pictures: Hastings Good Friday Marbles event

Sunny weather on Good Friday drew a good crowd to Winkle Island in Hastings Old Town to watch the annual marbles tournament

The event is held to raise funds for Hastings Borough Bonfire Society to help them put on the big event in October. It seems teams competing for a trophy in a good natured competition.

There is a long tradition for playing marbles in East Sussex on Good Friday with the World Marbles Championship taking place at Tinsley Green, near Crawley.
