Congratulations to the 25 Leeds Sports Clubs and 2 Leeds athletes that recieved an equipment grant from our panel last week. The next round of the equipment grant will be in the early summer 2027.

Sir Nick Faldo has a long history with Moortown and this week the Faldo Junior Tour is taking place at the club. There are a total of 58 boys and girls in the field, played over three rounds, and Moortown has three boys playing. For scores, click here - golfgenius.com/pages/1232662… Faldo was made a Life Member of Moortown at the start of last year and he returned in the summer to play the course and receive his accolade. The six-time Major winner won the Car Care Plan International at the club in 1984 to defend the title that he had won the previous year at Sand Moor. Both times local hero Howard Clark would take second spot and Faldo would finish on level par when he triumphed at Moortown 42 years ago. A crowd of over 20,000 would watch the then 26-year-old two-putt across the final green after Clark had chipped in from 30 yards to put the pressure on Faldo’s putter. But he would comfortably get down in two to take the £16,660 first prize. The key moment had come at the par-4 17th when Faldo struck a 9-iron to four feet while Clark took three to get down from the front of the green. The previous day Faldo had moved into contention with five birdies in his first 12 holes in a three-under 66. Three weeks previously Faldo had become the first Briton to win on the PGA Tour for 12 years when he landed the Heritage Classic. His first competitive visit to Moortown came at the Haig Whisky TPC, a tournament he won two years later at Hollinwell, when he finished in second place behind Bernard Gallacher. In the inaugural year of the Car Care Faldo would take sixth place at Moor Allerton before claiming a one-shot victory at Sand Moor the following year. In the two years following his win in 1984 he would also tee it up at Moortown, finishing 13th and 14th respectively. In 1987 Faldo would become a Major champion, winning The Open at Muirfield and he would finish his career with three Claret Jugs and three Green Jackets and there would be 30 victories in total on the European Tour. In 2009 he was knighted for his ‘services to golf’.

2026 has been a special year for women's and girls' cricket in England and Wales. 🏆Hosting the ICC Women's T20 World Cup enabled us to inspire more women and girls to play, lead, and volunteer in the game they love. 🏏 125,000+ girls picked up a bat and ball on Schools Cricket Day alone, and 11,055 girls' fixtures were played across England and Wales, the result being another record-breaking year for the number of girls playing the game. 📈 And to ensure this growth is becoming sustainable, £5 million was invested into women's and girls' facilities this year with more to come, ensuring that the legacy of a home World Cup supports the long-term delivery of the game. And 2027 will be even bigger. Find out how to start, grow, and sustain girls' cricket with the Girls Cricket Accelerator Toolkit, a simple practical resource designed for volunteers and administrators to ensure that there are more opportunities than ever for women and girls to play cricket. cricketcollective.zendesk.co…
