YOUNG SPORTSPERSON OF THE YEAR

Megan Richardson (4G1) has been nominated and named in the final six person shortlist for East Lothian's Young Sportsperson of the Year.

Megan and her family have been invited to attend the Sporting Achievement Reception at the Marine Hotel in North Berwick during February, where Catriona Matthew (this year's Womens British Open Golf Champion) will receive The Freedom of East Lothian.

Megan has had a fantastic year competing and winning through-out the country in team and individual events. Her most recent success was winning all three titles at both the U17 and U19 levels at a tournament at Meadowbank Stadium in December. Megan also represented Scotland this year and will be competing in her first senior National Championships in Perth during February.

Fingers crossed that Megan will pick up another trophy and be crowned Young Sportsperson of the Year.
