Academy strike again!

June 8, 2010 Uncategorized, news No Comments

Our Youth Academy was out in force over the weekend with members from team heading down to compete in luke imagea competition to mark the grand opening of Rock over Climbing Wall. With such publicity surrounding the event, competition was high, however the kids climbed exceptionally and Jennifer Woods was eventually rewarded with a well deserved first place. Our congratulations go to Jen and we know that this win couldn’t have come at a better time as she heads to Edinburgh as champion of the North West to compete in the BMC youth finals. We wish her all the best.

A special mention should also go to Luke Thomas, Gabriel Fleming and James Smart, who all came down and competed excellently, with Luke and Gabriel finishing 6th and 10th respectively in a very hard category.
