Senior League Track and Field – 5 May

The 1st Senior League Track & Field match of the season is now upon us this Saturday at Sutton in Ashfield, with the second match taking place at our home ground, Wyndley, on 27th May!

After two challenging years we are looking at fielding our strongest possible field of athletes for this crucial first meeting.  It’s very easy to score points…a great way to get race fitness…overall an opportunity not to miss.

Lifts will be provided from the club house on Saturday morning at around 12.  For more info, contact John Topliss or Fred Tremblay.

Full programme and times here.
