Writing this short piece for the ICBC website has prompted a look back through various articles, results and media spanning the last season, reminding me what a huge step forward we’ve taken this year - and what a great time we’ve had doing it.  With Head Coach Don McLachlan in the driving seat, the Imperial squad has continued to expand and develop in strength and depth.  Our wide-ranging achievements this year are testament to Don’s experience, expertise and commitment to driving development at all levels of the squad.

The new season is already underway and everyone at the club is raring to go.  We have an exciting intake of new athletes as well as a strong returning squad.  To everyone involved with ICBC, I wish you the best of luck as we look to build on our strengths and successes.  Let’s make this a cracking year.
