LizzieBirdswrth   0 #1 Posted July 2, 2019 I just want to say a Huge congratulations to my daughters best friend, Holly who found out today she is ranked #2 in the UK Junior K1 rankings for 14/15 year old girls. What an outstanding achievement for a girl who not only has to concentrate on school and exams and being a teenager but has also had to endure a traumatic last few years in her personal life and has learning difficulties to boot. This young lass is an inspiration and shows that you can achieve a lot even if you have a lot going on in life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Shes really laid back about it. Taking it in her stride but Im certain that inside she is as proud of herself as we are of her. She did say she is determined to get to the number 1 slot though. 42 minutes ago, willman said: Well done that is impressive.

Bold. Me too lol . I had to Google the sport when I was first told and I was surprised and hugely impressed when I saw what it involves. Its very physically demanding to say they least.
