Stewartry Young Farmers participated in the D&G Young Farmers Sports Competition on Sunday 11th June at Barony College.
The volleyball and football teams were unlucky, but the girl’s netball team won and went through to West Young Farmers Sports on Sunday 2nd July in East Kilbride. Here, the girls played very well throughout, winning two games and losing two, but ultimately finished unplaced.
