EVENING HERALD SPORTS PERSONALITY OF THE

YEAR 2015

Congratulations to Jacob Dawson who won the

Evening Herald Amateur Sports Personality of the

Year this week.

Jacob first started

rowing when he

joined the Junior

Gym at Fort

Stamford. What a

fantastic

achievement and

what an

inspiration Jacob is

to any young

person starting

out in their chosen

sport. We are all very proud of his achievements.

No one could be prouder though, than Annette

and Nick Dawson, Jacobs parents, who have

travelled around the world supporting him with his

rowing career. Annette is the cook at Fort

Stamford and we are so pleased to share this great

moment with her.

Congratulations

also to Jonathan

Gliddon, one of

our members,

who is the Runner

Up in the Evening

Herald Amateur

Sports Personality

of the Year.

Jonathan first

started playing

Squash 35 years

ago at Fort Stamford and has progressed to

become the England Captain in his age group.
