1 July 2009: YAA Coaching are once again running the refreshments at the Double Fita in Wetherby to raise funds for the squads' winter training.
We would appreciate donation of cakes/buns etc to sell over the weekend, and also any raffle prizes, as we will also be holding the raffle.
If anyone is there on Friday evening who could also give us a hand at getting the tent erected we would be very grateful - it means the bacon butties will be ready that much earlier on Saturday!
