We liaise closely with local Girlguiding and get competition info to Brownie groups at the start of the term (with enough time to include in their programme). Brownie groups organise the heats with Soroptimists as judges. The number of heats depends on numbers participating &#8211; we had unit heats, Division heats and a Final in 2025. The Final is jointly organised with Soroptimists supplying trophies, certificates and the shield.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/bridgend-and-district\/files\/2025\/10\/Slide1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5533 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/bridgend-and-district\/files\/2025\/10\/Slide1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"376\" height=\"275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/bridgend-and-district\/files\/2025\/10\/Slide1.png 715w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/bridgend-and-district\/files\/2025\/10\/Slide1-300x219.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 376px) 100vw, 376px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Bridgend Soroptimists provided promotional posters, competition entry forms, competition guidelines and certificates for all participants.
