5 young people from the club who were winners in the GMFCYP snooker and pool events earlier this year took part in the Northern area finals in Barnsley yesterday.

Fashion shoot in the gym

Last month Rachel Liggett, a Manchester fashion photographer, approached us to use the club as a background for a few fashion shots.
