A great effort overall by the students as this was the first time Somerset entered teams in this event. A massive thank you to Lauren Grocott and Chris Moy for their effort not just on tournament day but over the entire training season. I can’t thank them enough. The students simply would not have this opportunity without them. Also, Issy Garland who helped out and guided the students during the tournament.
