On Saturday 12 May, the Wimborne band entered the SDGR 8-bell striking competition, held at Calne, Wiltshire.

Up against 7 other teams, Wimborne ringers put in a solid performance of the Plain Bob Triples test piece. The band managed to chalk up only 19 faults, landing them comfortably in first place.

The ringers can now enjoy a few months ‘off’ from practising for striking competitions…until the next one in September.
