The competitions this year were again successful in terms of the enthusiasm and improved standards of first aid demonstrated by the teams and it was encouraging to have 24 teams competing on the day. Team numbers were slightly lower than last year, particularly in the Novice Lane, and we hope that the contacts made this year will be reflected in an increase in team numbers for 2007.
