Steve proud of his dream team

MEMBERS of 1855 Squadron Royton Air Training Corps have been crowned ATC netball champions of Greater Manchester, beating 35 squadrons in the process.

Their victory was a first for Steve Owen, who has just taken charge of the Royton squadron after moving from Saddleworth.

“To take charge of a squadron as successful as Royton is a challenge and a privilege,” he said. “I ‘ve been here a few weeks and the team around me is absolutely fantastic.

Of 1,000 squadrons around the UK, Royton is regularly ranked within the top five and has enjoyed consistent success.
