A massive thank you to everybody who entered, refereed, or volunteered their time to make the weekend a success. We hadn’t held the Norfolk Open since before the pandemic, and now with new management, so we were pleased to receive so much positive feedback across the weekend. We also really appreciate the useful constructive criticism we received and look forward to improving things even more for next year.
A big thank you to our sponsor this year, Mulberry Kitchen Studios, who provided the sashes for 1st place, highest place cadet, and highest place veteran in each event.
We were also very pleased to raise £238 for Norfolk and Waveney Mind through the raffle we ran each day.
See below for a link to the full results as well as some photos from the event.
