TROPHY RECALL
Would all Club Secretaries please check with their members and advise the Federation Secretary the number of trophies you have and the race for which they were flown for, if known.
Arrangements will then need to be made to return the trophies to either myself, Carl Upsall or Paul Newbold in order that we can verify them and arrange for them to be engraved for the 2014 and 2015 season prior to them being presented on 5th December 2015.
