Sportshall update

We had a much better turnout for Round 2 of the NW Sportshall League at Widnes. Thank you to all of the parents and athletes who attended.
The latest League Tables show that we still have a lot of work to do to qualify teams for the finals in January (25th) so we need even more athletes competing at Round 3 which is on the 7th December. Only the Top 5 teams in each league qualify for the finals. Once there, we are capable of winning the trophies as our Under 15 boys showed last season.
The meeting time is 11.30am for a 12.30pm start. Please see Ant Young at training for more information.
