Great Castle RunYear two of Western Baths Water Polo Club volunteering at the Great Castle Run in Stirling. With probably the worst weather we could have expected we really appreciate the support of all the volunteers who attended to fundraise for the club! Everyone was in high spirits and raised a good amount of money for the club - thank you! (January 2020) |

Celtics 2019Four Western members recently travelled down to Cardiff, Wales to represent Scottish Students at Celtics 2019. This competition is usually between Scottish, Irish and Welsh universities but unfortunately Ireland had to drop out due to scheduling problems. The women's team beat Wales 37-4 and the men's team unfortunately lost 15-9. With swimming winning this meant that Scotland won the competition overall. Everyone played incredibly well and represented their country to the best of their abilities, well done (April 2019)!
