This week our club celebrated an incredible year of sport with the return of our annual awards dinner.

The evening took place on Wednesday 28th December at Blancos Hotel with a three course dinner, awards ceremony and live music by The Polar Berries.

A huge thank you to everyone that attended our presentation evening. It was a fantastic night and to be back at Blancos to congratulate all our incredible athletes on their achievements throughout the year and a chance to celebrate with them.

Nights like this don’t happen without the hard work of many people but we would like to especially thank Darren Vaughan for being our Master of Ceremonies, Cathryn Williams, Rachel Monks. Sarah Howard, Tanya Vaughan and Rhiannon Merriman Foley for decorating the room, and Jane Harwood and Sharon David for organising a very popular and rewarding raffle.

Congratulations to all our winners. A full list of our incredible athletes are below.
