Congratulations to Issie Hartley who wins yet again
Judge Eileen Wilson said the calf handling competition was the hardest competition she had judged. Picking her winner Eileen said "There were only two of the competitors who never took their eye off what I was doing the whole of the time I was judging. These were Issie Hartley and Josh Bellas. It was Issie who went on to clinch the Norbreck Perpetual Trophy once more, but Eileen said there was very little between them. In third place was Thomas Hartley.
  
Earlier in the evening the judge had gathered all the young people together to give them some tips on how to handle their calves.
This was a great opportunity and welcomed by Border Blue Club Chairman Steve Pattinson. Whilst some of the young people present did not show on this occasion, it certainly inspired them to enter in the future.
