Congratulations to
Nottingham University Caving Club!!
who won the GRAND PRIZE worth over ?1000!!
at The CHECC forum 24th- 26th November
A well deserved win for Nottingham who worked hard to score points in the various competitions however ran away with the prize as so many other clubs awarded you their 10 points.
A huge thank you to all those generous companies who supported the Grand Prize and to the judges:
Caver Keith, Mark Burkey, Brendam Marris and Mark Wright
However the biggest 'Thank You' goes to those clubs that entered - THANK YOU!!

Reading RUCC - are a lucky club as they won the lucky prize draw, Exeter EUCC are an organised club as they were first to enter anything for the Grand Prize (nearly gives me a heart attack every year as entries get later and later - thank you Exeter who were awarded 5 bonus points for their efforts
I also loved EUCC's poster
....and thank you to Manchester MUSC who only realised they hadn't entered at the last minute, however got it together in time
(even washed the mud off)
The Grand Prize will run next year. Prizes as well as points will be on offer for individual sections - best video/photograph/poster etc etc. See everyone again in 2018
