About Me

---

My name is Andi Rickard and I am the reigning national scything champion  (since  2019)  and  nine  times  ladies  champion.

I have been using a scythe for 13 years and teaching for 9 years.

I am a teaching member of the Scythe Association of Britain and Ireland (www.scytheassociation.org)

I have taught many people, young and old alike, from all walks of life.

I have also appeared on a number of TV programmes including BBC Countryfile and featured in magazines such as The Field  and  The  Big  Issue.

In  2019  I  was  honoured  to  represent  Great  Britain  at  the  European  Scythe  Championships  in  Austria  and  finished  a  creditable  24th  place.   Not  too  shabby  considering  that  most  of  the  competitors  were  half  my  age!
