Meet the members

The Red Rose Rockets formed in October 2002 and are based around the Preston/Blackpool area of Lancashire although we have team members from all over Lancashire and Greater Manchester. We are a fairly small but determined group, we aim to be competitive but most of all have fun; there's no room for blind ambition or individualism in this team, what we achieve we achieve together. We have come a long way in a short time and we currently run the two fastest teams in Lancashire, the Rockets (sub 19.00) and Rebels (sub 18.00).

We train weekly at ILPH Penny Farm, Blackpool (an equine rehabilitation centre) and compete regularly especially throughout the summer where we often spend our weekends all camped together at tournaments as a team, it's not all about the dogs!

Current team members are…

Natalie Holtappel (BFA member 0949)
