Successes
Rosie Barrington and Sadie Greetham both made it to the last three in the junior sports performer of the year category in the Calderdale Sports Awards presented at the Victoria Theatre in July.
Rosie is a member of the England Talent Development Synchro Squad. Earlier this year she won two gold medals at the Yorkshire Championships and is the reigning national champion with her duet partner in the 13/14 age group. Sadie competes in the modern pentathlon and is the reigning Yorkshire Under 15 champion and also fences for Great Britain, her recent successes including the silver medal in the England Youth Championships held in London and gold medals in four legs of this year's Leon Paul Junior series (she is also the Yorkshire junior epee champion).
Photography
From time to time we like to celebrate the successes of our athletes by asking the Courier to publish reports and photographs and sometimes they ask for names to be published alongside photographs. If you do not wish your child’s name to appear with the photograph please let us know in writing.
Reminders
The club is closed for two weeks. Training begins again from Monday 16th August.
Gala 4 is on 26th August.

Timekeepers
Congratulations to Mary and Catherine who are now qualified timekeepers. Mary is continuing with the training to become Judge Level 1.
Fundraising
Thanks to Julie Wilkins, monthly competitions have now been reinstated. She will run bonus ball and football cards. The last football card started a long while ago was completed last week and the winner is Mrs Annison.
We still need something big to make enough money to have a free social/ presentation night in January. Any ideas?
Fees
Not paid for August? Please make sure you pay as soon as possible when we reopen after the break.
