08 Oct SAYFC Highlight Their Creativity With Cancer Research Charity Themed ‘Bale Art’ Designs
Edinburgh Rugby prop, Pietro Ceccarelli took time out of his hectic autumn international period to join Galbraithโs Robert Taylor and SAYFC in the prestigious Bale Art judging!
Appearing across Scotland in the past week โ constructed bale models have allowed the countryโs rural youth to assist a range of cancer charities, backing their campaigns and highlighting the importance of self-health and wellbeing.
National Chairperson, Kim Livesey, has been keeping an eye out for the spectacular sculptures, stating:
โThese artworks not only give club members a fun creative activity to be involved in together as a team whilst promoting cancer awareness, but they have provided a fantastic opportunity to promote young farmers in local communities, showing passers-by the innovation and creativity within our able young farmersโ
The top six finalists who showcased their creativeness and swayed the judges are announced as; Peeblesshire JAC, Harray YFC, Loch Lomond YFC, Biggar YFC,ย Strathmore JAC and Callander YFC.
The finalists bale creations sparkled for the judges after a difficult cut down, with all clubs doing an impressive amount of organising in pulling together their constructions. With clubโs featuring elements of the self-checking processes being endorsed by cancer charities, SAYFC are stressing to the industry and wider society that health screenings and check-ups should be scheduled into every individualโs lifestyle โ whether they be โfashionableโ or not.
Pietro caught up with us following his judging stunt, commenting:
โThese creations support a cause which affects us all at some point in life. Iโm proud to have judged such a competition, full of ambitious bale designs and Iโd like to reach out my thanks to all clubs who entered and provided me with a challenging but very entertaining task alongside Robertโ.
