A pretty good couple of weeks for York St John Goalball Club to say the least!
Following on from the novice team's success in achieving bronze in the Novice Shield, the intermediate team secured third place in the Northern Division in the final game of the regular season. Great effort in our 1st full season back. Well done to all the teams #goalball
