We return to Fenton Manor for the 4th consecutive year after making it our home in 2012. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the centre staff for their help in making our events run as smoothly as possible. This year WGUK welcomes the return of Winter Festival from Ireland and welcomes new unit Aurora also from Ireland to the circuit who unfortunately due to illness could not complete the season. However we wish them well and hope for their return for the 2016 season. This season has also seen the return of World Class with Mayflower being the only competing unit. We have 36 guards representing 16 organisations in competition. We also welcome an exhibition performance by the Blue Barons Mini Corps from Scotland during the day. which has seen training events through the season and look to see the hard work for the future. I would like to congratulate Mark for a successful season. As always the tabulating team Ann and John Legon have once again worked tirelessly during the season as we also welcome on board new tabulators Trevor Howarth and Sarah Marshall who have all travelled all over the country supporting the Judges with administration services and tabulating. Also to the Judges runners who work hard at all our events, thank you very much to Ellen and Kate Oates and Yasmine and Thalia Clarke, we very much appreciate the time that they give. I must offer a very big thank you to all the WGUK staff and volunteers, not only for their help today but the WGUK events this season, from the arena set up crew to the workers who tirelessly work the doors, warm up, sound system, the referee’s Douglas Caldwell, Diane Suett and Sharron I must offer a very big Patrick and our announcer, without thank you to all the WGUK these people the events would not staff and volunteers ... have been a success. I would also like without these people to thank Nigel Brown for his support the 2015 events would not as Treasurer of MPAUK and to Alan have been a success. Thompson who is working constantly behind the scenes for our activity. During 2015 WGUK continued our policy of sanctioning shows around England and would like to thank the organisations who continue to sponsor shows on our behalf – Anchormen, Mayflower, Oracle and Southern Knights. WGUK also sponsored the first show of the season here at Fenton Manor and we also hosted in Grantham our 2nd successful WGI-UK regional which was fully supported by WGI who supplied the panel of judges for the event, along with trophies for the top 3 units in each class. The end of the 2014 season once again saw Mark Nicholson elected by the judges and appointed by the board as the Judges coordinator. The 2015 season has seen growth within the judging community welcoming both new and returning judges. We also welcome WGI judge Shirley Dorritie to the team as Education Director Today will bring a close to another successful season of inspiring shows from so many talented performers. From the youngest to the oldest they are all a credit to the activity. I would like to finish off by thanking you the supporters for your unwavering support for the members and WGUK throughout the season and today. I hope you all have a fantastic day and I hope to see you all again in 2016 Nicola Garlick Chair WGUK WGUK, 11 St Aidans Place, Norfolk Park, Sheffield S2 2NE Tel: 0844 334 2879 E-mail: admin@wguk.org.uk Website: www.wguk.org.uk WGUK is part of Marching and Performing Arts UK WGUK British Winter Guard Championships 2015 2014 Championships WGUK British Winter Guard Championships 2015 WGUK British Winter Guard Championships 2015 The 2014 Champions 2014 WGUK Championships Results Cadet Class 1 South West Academy 86.50 2 Southern Knights Rugrats 81.70 3 SPICE 78.30 4 Avenger Cadets 76.60 5 Alliance Antz 73.10 6 Thurrock Academy 71.10 7 Mini Moonlight 66.70 8 Mayflower Cadets 66.00 Junior Class 1 Anchormen 89.30 2 Southern Knights 88.40 3 South West Academy 84.90 4 Oracle Juniors 81.70 5 Mayflower 79.90 6 Kidsgrove Scouts Academy 77.70 7 Northern Academy 77.30 8 Thurrock Academy 72.80 9 Avengers 70.20 10 Moonlight 65.50 11 Cohesion 61.10 12 Bay Vanguard 57.90 A Class 1 Southern Knights 87.10 2 Mayflower 85.80 3 Northern Academy 82.00 4 SPICE 80.50 5 South West Academy 79.50 6 Winter Festival 74.70 7 Thurrock Academy 74.00 8 Harmony 67.40 9 Reflexions 65.60 Open Class 1 Kidsgrove Scouts 86.13 2 Mayflower 85.88 3 Oracle 80.50 4 Southern Knights 77.00 5 Alliance 72.25 6 Avengers 68.88 WGUK British Winter Guard Championships 2015 2015 Season Summary Stoke Crawley Halifax Colch ester 11th Jan 25th Jan 1st Feb 8th Feb WGI Reg.

Our dedicated “Judges Training College & System Awareness Weekend” was held in late November in Stoke on Trent, which saw 11 returning judges plus 2 new judges. The event was facilitated by Shirley Dorritie, our newly appointed Judges Education Director and was a great interactive educational event both for judges and instructors highlighting the approach and application of the WGI Judging System. Further training days have taken place in both early January prior to the first show and also at the WGI UK Regional in February, combined with ongoing caption based “Home Study Exercises”. By the commencement of the season we had 13 judges available to judge and were able to welcome into our ranks the following individuals: • Ivan Balchin • Helen Bassett Throughout the season there has been good and constructive two-way dialogue between the Judging Team and competing units but as stated in my report last season it still remains our intention to jointly develop with units more realistic and accessible methods of communication and awareness events in relation to the approach and application of the judging system. As we move into the closed season our focus will be on the “RECRUITMENT” of new blood into the Judging Team, so if you are interested in judging in 2016 then please email judges@wguk.org.uk for more information. I would like to thank everyone below for their continued hard work and support this season.

Half of the performers are alumni of the Glasgow Blue Barons Drum & Bugle Corps and also includes alumni from every other Glasgow Corps. The Glasgow Blue Barons were formed in 1979 and last performed in the United Kingdom in 1988 at a DCUK show that included the esteemed Madison Scouts. The mini-corps version of this former DCUK and European Championship winning corps was formed in late 2013 and performed for the first time at DCI Soundsport, Bristol, on 21 March 2015. In addition to receiving a warm welcome and hearty applause from an appreciative audience, the mini-corps performers were delighted to achieve a Gold award and the title of Champions at this enjoyable event. We appreciate the opportunity to perform at your Championships event and would like to thank WGUK for its continuing support for the mini-corps activity in the UK. Our music selection today includes some things old and some things new. We commence with themes from the movie ‘Brigadoon’ with a nod to the old days with ‘Highland Laddie’s Wee Wall of Sound’. Our second piece is ‘Rainmaker’ composed by guitarist Earl Klugh. The closing section is a medley of Canto Del Viento/ Que Lastima/ Topaz. We hope you enjoy the show as much as we enjoy performing for you. Can’t get enough Drum Corps or Winter Guard action?
