MANY members of the Bude RATS took part in the Glidden and Squire Cross Country league over the winter months.

The league comprised four races over three courses — Kingsley school, Bideford, West Buckland School, Barnstaple and Arlington court, Barnstaple.

The final took place on March 3 in sub-zero temperatures at West Buckland School.

Those completing three or more races brought home plenty of medals for the RATS.
