jmd Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Last Saturday was the young farmers county rally. I had been asked a few weeks prior if I would coach the longridge young farmers tug of war team.longridge is the team I pulled for many years ago. It's a junior team under 18 so a mix of boys and girls So I done 4 training nights with them and they went on to win against 7 other teams not losing a single pull so going through to northern area as Lancashire A. very happy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
