Over the first hurdle

Congratulations to Andrew Clark, William Lester and Ollie Wilson, who have made it through the first selection stage for the Midlands squad for the interdistricts. Good luck to the boys in stage 2. Once again, Kinross is punching way above its weight in the junior age groups.

The Ladies 2s did it! They fought their way to a narrow victory over Perthshire to clinch the Division 2 title.  Well done to Cap’n Wendy and everyone who has made such a success of the season.
