Sir WWW Mounted Games Friendly – Results

One senior and one junior team travelled to Malpas this last weekend to take part in the 2-day competition. The senior team of Ellie Richardson, Gwenan Roberts, Will Stone, Isabella Stone and Leia Lloyd-Williams were in a very tough competition and after the heats went into the B final. They won the 5 Mug final but didn’t have the speed in some of the other races and finished in 5th place. The junior team of Abbie Richardson, Cari Jones, Ceri Lloyd-Williams, Nansi Edwards and Daisy Stone improved with each session of heats, and went into the B final in 4th place. They had a really good final and won their 2 Mug race. They finished in 2nd place overall, behind a Sir WWW team that only dropped one point in the finals.
