Worksop juniors get to nationals

Congratulations go to the Worksop Juniors who have won through to the national stages of an NFA tournament following a fine win over Barnsley on their own Brampton Canal waters on Saturday.
Despite only one practice they stuck to a team plan which secured victory on four sections together with a second and third for 15 points from a possible 18.
This took them through to the final at Larford Lakes near Birmingham. Well done!
