Well done to Maddy Hughes, Isabel Male and Jasmine Walker for representing the West Midlands at English Schools yesterday and today.
Competing against the best in the country, Maddy (hammer) finished 13th; Jasmine (javelin) finished 6th (after throwing 39.40m, just 14cm short of her PB) and Isabel (200m) finished 4th in the final after storming to a new PB & Club Record in her heat (25.07).
Well done to all 3 girls – we’re very proud of you.
A massive well done to RSCAC seniors for coming second in today’s league competition. This success was not only due to top three finishes, but also due to athletes doing extra events to gain as many points as possible. A massive well done to everyone, including the officials who missed an important football match to enable the event to take place!
Promition at the end of the season is within reach! So if you’re a RSCAC athlete who is in the Under 17 age group or older, please put Sunday 5th August in your diaries as that’s the last league meeting of the year. Let’s aim for promotion!
Here are some of our young athletes enjoying themselves at the British Champs today. Huge thanks British Athletics for the tickets.
Tomorrow, we have another group of young athletes enjoying the British Champs, while also cheering on two of our own! Good luck Kane and Katie.
It’s not only Kane & Katie competing for RSC tomorrow, as our Under 17s & Under 20s are competing in Stoke. Good luck!
RSCAC athletes Katie Ingle & Kane Howitt will be competing against the best in Britain at the Muller British Champs at the Alexander Stadium on Sunday.
Kane has the 200m at 13:50. If he makes the final that is the last event of the day at 16:50.
Katie is in the 3k steeplechase at the very precise start time of 14:44.
We wish Katie and Kane the best of luck.
Anyone going to watch, please look out for our royal blue vest and cheer very loudly!
The event will be televised on BBC 2, 1pm – 5pm on Sunday.
