1 March: BKO Update

Before providing some details of forthcoming events, I need to make sure that members are aware that the Saturday event planned for this Saturday has been cancelled due to no offers for the role of Organiser. Also congratulations to Ian Cooper for a clear win in M70 at the Midland Championships event on Sunday.  Also both Martin Wilson (M65) and Peter Bennett (M75) came third in their classes.
