Masterteam 2004/5

Round 1

The first round of the Masterteam Competition was held at Flitwick Methodist Church on Saturday 20th November.

9 Battalion companies entered, but 23rd Luton withdrew before the competition and 15th Luton did not turn up.

Group N (1st Newport Pagnell, 22nd Luton & 20th Luton) was won by 1st Newport Pagnell, with 22nd Luton runners-up.

Group O (1st Bletchley, 1st Kempston, 3rd Bedford & 1st Flitwick) was won by 1st Bletchley, with 1st Kempston runners-up.

Therefore 1st Bletchley, 1st Kempston, 1st Newport Pagnell and 22nd Luton will progress to Round 2. They should receive details directly from the organisers in due course.
