Past members from Kilraughts YFC and Glarryford YFC teamed up to put current members through their paces which resulted in Ewan Johnston being placed second in the 12-14 age group, Mitchell Park being placed first in the 18-21 age group and Cathy Reid being placed third in the 18-21 category.

The club would like to thank all the coaches, from both clubs, for their time and effort put in to this competition and well done to all members who competed, especially those competing for the first time.

Next on the calendar was the annual church service which was held at Clough Presbyterian Church.

A massive thank you must go to everyone who came along and supported our annual church service.

Together, the club has raised £658.50 to the SHINE organisation through the collection, which is fantastic.

Thanks to Sylvia Kelly who came along to talk about her experience with the charity and the club wish the Kelly family good luck with their cycling event.
