Competitions! Competitions! Competitions!
If our in-club competitions are not enough for you, I have brought together some 'outside' competitions that you might be interested in. They are organised by the closing date for entries, with the closest dates at the top of the page. Why not have a go and, if you win, please let us know so that we can share your success with club members via this web site. If you are aware of any other outside competitions I might have missed please let me know and I will include them here..
