Well done all of you!

The Club has grown stronger again this year with our number of Students gradually increasing.

Well done and thanks again to Dave, Fred, Mark, Carl and Matt for helping when needed – your help is really appreciated.  I am very lucky to have such a strong Team around me.

Really looking forward to next year when we can grow again and hopefully get involved in a few more Competitions.  We had some good success this year with a number of medals in the GB Open Championships.  This should be a great platform to keep building the Club on for the future.

So, some very important dates for your diary: -

Final class of 2024 - Thursday 19th December

We will return in 2025 on Monday 6th January

The final class will be FREE of charge to all current members and will run from 7pm to around 8:15pm.  There will be training, games, fun and of course Trophy Awards.  Please feel free to attend.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you.
