Last week 25 young people passed their ABA preliminary award while another five passed the standard award. All of the youngsters will now move on to either the standard or bronze awards.

The programme is run by ABAE Advanced Coach Quinton "Q" Shillingford who is based in Portsmouth.

Q said: "We have had a really enjoyable week and a lot of young people have been introduced to the sport and are now ready to progress to the next stage of the awards. Hopefully many of these youngsters will now go on to join ABA clubs to complete their silver and the gold awards and have a future in the sport."
