...Mobbs Own Challenge

Saturday saw training of a slightly different nature for the Colts as they competed in the inaugural ‘Mobbs Own Challenge’.

In teams of 2, the lads ‘ran’ a course from the club taking in two checkpoints – The Robin Hood Pub Garden and Emberton Park, all whilst carrying a 10kg sandbag – the equivalent of an 18lb WW1 artillery shell

This year’s challenge was won in a time of 47:01mins by Jack and Joseph after some ingenuity from the first pair to cross the line meant they were excluded!

The winners will receive the “Mobbs Own” trophy which will be mounted on the wall of the gym and inscribed with their names. We will re-run the challenge every year.

But that’s not all...over the next few weeks we will see the Colts Vs Senior coaches sports competition – as they battle it out over Tennis, paddle, darts and bowls. A massive thanks to Alan @ Olney Tennis Club for the use of the courts on Friday for the Colts coaches to warm-up

‘Normal’ Colts Training sessions continue on Tuesday and Thursday evenings – new players welcome, get in touch through socials
