British Junior Championships – Another medal rush, this time silver!
Although nowhere near as many champions, certainly more medals! 1 Gold, 9 Silvers and 2 Bronze medals is a very impressive haul for a county let alone a single club!

(Devon, Cornwall, Somerset, Dorset and Wiltshire). So it is very well done to all those that competed and did themselves and the club proud. Credit must not only go to…

A video (not quite completed, so will be updated) was shown to celebrate the completion…

Now 3 days of fitting out and the interior will be complete including kitchen and practice range. Over the next few weeks paving, ramps,…
