Yesterday we hosted day 1 of the county T&F Championshops, and once again the coaches, club members and most importantly the athletes all came up trumps. Without being biased, I believe we are easily the best club in the county at hosting major events, and once again the weather was very kind to us too.

We had lots of successful performances across all Juvenile, Masters and senior age groups in what was another fantastic day for the club. Please see our Facebook page for some great snaps from a fun filled day of action.

Cross Country Day 2

Once again our athletes represented us brilliantly today. The under 9s were very brave in their 500m and they all battled up the hill to the end and were a credit to all coaches and parents. The under 11s 1200m produced some stunning runs, with Daniel and Jack pushing each other all the way up the hill to lead the team home with top 10 finishes each. The under 13 teams both performed strongly with the boys picking up 3rd place in the team event with Adam Daniel Ben and Aidan driving the team up the hill, and the girls in the running for top 3/4 finishes with Ciara and Laura producing top 10 finishes. Full results to follow soon hopefully, well done all!!
