Novice Winners

Scottish 500m Final

In an exciting, hard fought final Scott Anderson (Dundee) took his first Scottish title, over taking Craig Miller on the last lap to deny Craig his 15th championship title. Third place went to Kathryn Thomson, a great result as she continues her recovery from injury. The fourth finalist was Greg Ireland (Dundee) in his first senior final.

There were a number of other very good performances not least from two of our newer skaters Conner Hull and Callum Mort, both displaying a lot of promise.

The novice competition was won by Jordan McLaughlin (Forth Valley) with second and third going to Flyers Crawford Gilles and Aiden Walker-Stewart. Flyers newest skaters Lorna, Deborah and Steven all skated with spirit and demonstrated potential for the future too.

Thanks to all the officials for a good event and the Magnum staff for their support.
