#sportpanel

Received this absolutely wonderful gift today as a thank you memento from an incredible group of young people is has been our privilege to support over the past two years as part of a partnership with Sportscotland.

Their two years as Panel members has come to an end, and the new recruits for 14 - 16 have begun their work. It has been a joy to watch how the group came together over that time, seeing them develop and grown individually and collectively. My list of moments when I could have burst with pride at their achievements - some quiet in nature, others very public - is a very, very long one! I know every one of them will go on to wonderful things.

They each wrote a lovely personal message of thanks inside the book, which was filled with photographs summing up the whole experience. Just as well as I had my waterproof mascara on let me tell you...

Thanks guys - but really the thanks are from us to you, for accomplishing so much and for your dedication to improving sport for all young people across Scotland. Yer all stars!
