On Saturday 8th July, ten young ringers from the SDGR took part in the Ringing World National Youth Contest (RWNYC) day in York. We had a great time, ringing at five towers including the magnificent 12 at York Minster. In the competition itself the team rang call changes on six bells. The band was:
- Conni (Dorchester branch)
- Ben (Calne branch)
- Oscar (Calne branch)
- Ben (East Dorset branch)
- Robert (Devizes branch) (C)
- Pippa (East Dorset branch)
There were seventeen call changes teams and Go Bellistic! was placed joint 4th (with Young@Herts), behind Durham & Newcastle, Sussex Young Ringers and Kent Young Ringers. Our best ever result! Thank you to the Guild and to all those ringers who have supported us financially, practically and with their best wishes.
