Hi all,

It was lovely to see some of you at the Welsh National Championships this past weekend. I hope those that were there enjoyed the event.

I wanted to give a head’s up to the events coming up this year as well as the latest on the Vet 4 Nations which is progressing well from an organisation perspective.

A second win for Maxwell Rowe-Haynes (Celtic Sword), in this popular competition, the 36th event in the series with 16 entrants (including 1 from Jersey).   Fast and furious throughout, Max led from the start, with a tie on 34 points at the end of the final round with Daniel Miller, (Bristol White Eagle).  This was settled  with  an exciting fence-off for first place, with Max getting the verdict.
