Jim Henderson propelled a steel-toe-capped Dunlop size 12s over 20 metres with an impressive (non wind assisted) throw. With this he won Brampton men’s blue riband welly-wang. The event, which was held at the end of the 2014 Brampton Fete was hotly contested. Various throwing techniques were tried by contestants, some of whom came from the area, but also included a strong contingent from the north east. No one could beat Jim’s throw and he collected a trophy which will be displayed at the Village Hall ready for next year’s challenge.
