Congratulations to our Junior Team of Sam Fielding, Alex Fielding, Josh M’Caw, Hannah Freeman, Laura Bayne, Francesca Bayne and Evan Bowers, who finished 7th out of 22 teams at the Peter Palmer Team Relay at Ratby Woods on Sunday 11th September 2016.

The Peter Palmer trophy is a national event. It is a relay race for Junior Teams of 6-9 members starting in the middle of the night (usually around 4 – 4.30) and has 2 or 3 legs in the dark, one at dawn and then two in the light of the early morning.
