Also joining Lily on the Team GB women’s hockey squad at the Rio Olympics will be University of Birmingham alumni Sophie Bray and Ellie Watton (reserve). Simon Mantell, who graduated from the University of Birmingham in 2007, has been selected for the Team GB men’s hockey squad as a reserve.

The evening was organised by George Matthews, and with lots of chocolates and sweets up for grabs, competition was fierce among those taking part! The Fancy Dress competition was won by Fiona Laing who came along as a very convincing snowman, and still managed to shoot! All members had to shoot using varying weight jelly bows and club arrows, so everyone had the same dis-advantages ! There were even some very special Christmas target faces supplied by club member and talented artist Jonathan Howlett. 14th December - Impressive Fundraising for Children in Need The junior section of Bannockburn Bowmen held a sponsored shoot in aid of Children in Need and raised an impressive £550. Event organiser Brenda Williams praised the juniors for their efforts, especially as the majority of them had only been shooting for 3 weeks when the sponsored shoot took place. Not only did they have to concentrate on their shooting, but they also ran a raffle, and many games for the adults to take part in. Douglas Blyth (the "senior" junior) did a great job with keeping everything running smoothly and ensuring all the jobs were done. Thanks too to all the club members who provided raffle prizes for the event. The attached photo shows some members of the junior section who took part in the Children in Need evening.
