Hey Alexa, play "Total Eclipse of the Korf"

We had a great time yesterday at our first indoor training of the season, followed by the first set of trials for our teams for 26/27!

Not only that but we even managed to catch the eclipse outside before the session 🌚 although if this photo can be believed, we were stunned to see it inside too!

Our open training sessions in August are free for beginners - if you're interested in trying out our fun sport then please do come along or drop us a message with any questions! ⭐
