His work has revolved around running taster sessions, handing out flyers and promotion through social media and he is now running training sessions on Monday evenings. Since Dane started this work numbers have grown significantly and he now hopes to secure a fixture in the coming weeks to reward the girls for their hard work and dedication over the past month. Dane commented: "Over a four week period numbers have grown from 6 members to 16 with more girls interested in coming along. The girls have loved the contact and are fast learners and I hope to see them progress fast."
