Sheffield Hallam Ladies Lacrosse Club were wearing yellow and raising money for World Mental Health Day on 10th October, participating in Young Minds’ #helloyellow campaign. In addition, the club is proud to report their first team player and club committee member, Katie Scammells, recently ran a half marathon- raising over £400 for the Motor Neuron Disease Association.
The club has also witnessed an impressive increase in participation during its first month back. Hallam’s first development team session was attended by twenty-four players, which their ULO, Laura Moore, calls “a huge uptake” in the game, in comparison to pre-pandemic levels. Sign-ups reportedly continue to rise, with even more new members still anticipated to join!
