SPORTING EXCELLENCE IN THE UK

Early day motion 371, tabled 9 July 2013 by Gregory Campbell (DUP). Signed by 10 members.

That this House notes the exceptional sporting achievements for UK sport over the weekend of 7 and 8 July 2013, when the British and Irish Lions, composed mostly of Welsh players, defeated Australia in rugby, the Northern Ireland golfer Graham McDowell won the French Open and the Scots tennis player Andy Murray won Wimbledon, becoming the first British player in 77 years to win the Men's Singles title; and expresses the hope that English players and teams will also perform well in the future so that all in the UK will have just cause to be proud of our British athletes.
