2009 was a season to remember, and most of our juniors had a great year in terms of improvement and great achievements. Presentation Night at the club was dominated by juniors and with our huge success in the B&D Junior league with winning the Knockout Trophy, and finishing off the season with a win at B&C Junior Open 2010 to win this title for the second year in a row. 2010 is going to be an exiting year for us all.
