Sheffield Show Report
Just the Open Class decided to take the long trip up to Sheffield on Sunday 18th March which meant not such an early start as they were not due to perform until around 4pm.
After nearly 6 hours on a coach, the nine members, making use of the new coloured ropes, put on a good performance and were placed 2nd however they still have 2/3 other units very close behind.
10½ hours on a coach for 3½ hours in Sheffield!! Thanks to the people who traveled with the Guard and also thanks to The Forgemen for assisting with the rope poles.
Now the final show has taken place the Senior Guard are seeded 3rd in the Open Class, the Cadets are in 4th Place in the Junior Class and the Rugrats 5th in the Cadet Class. And so we now make the final preparations for the British Winter Guard Championships in Birmingham on Sunday 25th March and we wish all three Guard the very best of luck.
