In creating "The Ron Pickering Memorial Fund" it is hoped that a permanent
expression of Ron’s ideals can be established. As Ron so often said,
"Sport was born of philosophers and teachers and has survived thirty-three
centuries because it is based on the ethic of fair play. Athletics is special to me because it caters for the young and the old,
the fat and the thin, the best and the beginner.
"Sport is the most precious commodity we have to hand on to the next generation."
The Fund is dedicated to assisting aspiring young athletes who have shown by
their attitude and dedication that they possess the qualities which will ensure
the growth and protection of sport.
Any donation you may wish to make towards helping the next generation of
athletes to succeed, will be gratefully received.
