Opening "Come and Try It" session at Craven Leisure Centre pool Skipton. I don't know who tried it out, or who came back the next week, but Dave Colley got it all to happen and was helped on the night by 2 other experienced  players from Halifax : Alan Stansfield and  Lewis Saleem.

In the following couple of years the team took part in the Yorkshire League, several friendlies and I believe at least one national tournament.

The Team 

Back Row: Daryl, Andrew, Dave (captain), Lewis, Rachel, Kieran

I was particularly impressed with our young players Molly and Oliver they were amazing holding their own against some big blokes. Onwards and upwards ducks 💪🦆
