Fresh faces at Poulton

Poulton add two troms to the ranks after success at Tameside.

Poulton
 

Fresh from their podium finish in the Championship Section of the recent Tameside, contest, Poulton-le-Fylde adds two new faces to its ranks.

Martin Scragg joins on 2nd trombone and Pete Hull comes in on bass trombone.

Big part

Spokesperson Andy Moore told 4BR: "Both players have helped the band out over the past year and played a big part in the bands recent result at Tameside."

He added: "We would like to thank Andrea Wilkinson, Matt Denney and Connor Lennon for all of the service they have given to the band over the past few years and wish them all the best in their future musical careers."
