Leigh & Lowton SC will commemorate the sad passing of young club member, Haydn Griffiths, three years ago, with the latest anniversary of our RNLI Trophy Day in his name.

All proceeds will go to the RNLI who led the rescue and recovery efforts in the Mersey on that day and who risk their lives on a daily basis to rescue seafarers in distress.

The event will take place on Sunday 23rd March, open to club members and visitors with three races starting at 12.00pm.

All entry fees and donations go to the RNLI.

Entry is open through webcollect.org.uk/llsc/event/winter-open-series-2024-25
