Each year the Rotary Club of Newton Aycliffe take a number of disabled people to take part in the Northern Games for Disabled at Middlesbrough. The Aycliffe team entered archery, darts, cricket, table tennis, bowls, boccia, kurling, club throwing, javelin, swimming and other sports at the Eston Leisure facility.
It is always a great occasion and it is heartwarming to see the delight of the winners receiving their medals.
Organiser Rotarian Tony Robinson said: “After another successful Games held at Eston last Sunday the Newton Aycliffe club would like to thank those that supported us especially Don Walker who provided the helpers and competitors with a packed lunch, also J & C Coaches for the transport and not forgetting the Wishing Well Club whose competitors brought back an amazing haul of 18 Medals.”
