Congratulations once again on the great work done by the MAG community. I’d like to acknowledge the coaches and clubs involved in this programme. Without them 360 wouldn’t happen and we are fortunate to have their support and expertise. 2020 is an Olympic year and I hope that provides inspiration to our future Olympians to get stuck in and work hard to be our next champions.

Merry Christmas.

David Phillips

360 Lead Coach.
