Some of our Boccia members where down in Hatfield today competing in the Heathcoat Cup. For two of them it was there first time and they both played really well and should be proud. One made it through to the Semifinals but got pipped at the post the other performed really well in the group she was placed in. The final member of the team made it all the way to the finals in her group and put up a great fight to try and win that Gold medal but unfortunately she lost to an ex-Olympian and came home with the Silver.
One proud coach π΅βͺοΈπ΄ π
