We had another great result and fun in Woking Leisure Center in the london regional competition with 10 lifters and 4 level two coaches and referees (out of 30 competitors).
A big thanks to Jackie Potter for all her help and support. She is not only the parent of one of our best technical lifters, also she is the welfare officer and looks after our under 18 lifters as well. She is always ready to give advice to every one and helping the club committees for every thing without getting paid.
She is working full time and at the same time she looks after her 3 kids. We should add that Tia, her daughter is the first member of club who paid the full yearly membership in advance without been told or needing to remind her every month. I hope to have more parents like Jackie to help our club which is going to help us to have a better result for every one in the future. If you can see us making a change to your kids, please try help us to make a change to our club in return. Thanks
