Club Presentation Evening - December 4th 2005  

The Royston Rockets BMX Racing Club held their annual awards evening last Sunday with members and friends competing in a Ten Pin bowling session at the Hollywood Bowl in Stevenage followed by the clubs trophy presentation.

 The presentation started with the Club Summer Series awards, which are given to riders who regularly compete in the Tuesday evening races held through the summer months. Over 35 riders took part in the series but for the older riders it can be difficult to make a commitment to attend enough club nights so unfortunately, this year none of the clubs older members qualified for Summer Series trophies The trophy winners this year were; 

7 & Under Class

1               Bradan Blanche

2              Aaron Dallywater

3              Oliver Hall

4               Daniel Blanche

8-11 Year Class

1               James Handleigh

2              Louis Burton

4              Kyle Gutteridge

5              Aston Blanche

12-14 Year Class

The club also awards annual trophies in the following categories:

 The 2005 Club Rider Award, which is for the rider who you think, has been the most successful in the last year. This year the award went to James Handleigh in recognition for his number one Regional Series Ranking as well as good results at National Level.

 The 2005 Club Member Award is for the rider who you think has done the most for the club in the last year. This year the award went to Louis Burton for his solid rides throughout the year at Regional and National level which generated regular points for the club in the team elements of these events and in particular for him qualifying for the finals in the British Championships where he finished in 6th.

 The 2005 Rob Indri Memorial award is for the rider who has improved the most in the last year. This year the award went to Anthony Taylor who grew in confidence during the year culminating with an excellent 4th in the East Anglian Championships and a semi final place in his first British Championships.

 The 2005 Shane Keeler Memorial Award is for the rider who has been the most dedicated club rider in the last year without necessarily having any great success. This year the award went to Aston Blanche who only started racing at the beginning of the year but tried his hand at all levels from club to National, including the British Championships.

 The club members now get back to competing in the Regional Winter Series, the next round of which is on December 11th at Milton Keynes and the Royston Club hope to have a full contingent of riders making the trip up the M1.
