Well done also to those who worked extremely hard on the mat today, but  were unlucky not to medal this time;  Madison Brown, Lewis McIlvaney, Allan Farrell, Ellie Weir, Mhairi Crookston & Sophie Niezbecka.  

Big shout out also to our umpires today; Mr. McIlvaney, Mr. Munro Snr & Mrs. Singleton, who worked tirelessly all day.  And to our coaches; Miss. Brown, Mr. Cain, Mr. Jervis & Mr. McAvoy too. 

We now look forward to our inter club competition, and the British Championships in November.
