Royal Sutton Coldfield Athletics Club

Well done to all our athletes, parents and helpers who braved the cold and ice today in Cannock Chase. All our young runners looked in great shape for the County Champs in a couple of weeks and thoroughly deserved the big pub lunch. Massive thanks to Brian and Martin for organising.

Due to the continued snow and ice on the track and Wyndley Lane the taster session for 7-9 year olds on 14 December has been cancelled.

We return on 11 January. Have a nice Xmas and New Year.

The Thursday night 5-6pm session for 7-9 year olds starts back on 21 September. All children who attended last July are welcome to attend. To those children who are on our waiting list please await your invitation to join. You will be notified either by a text or email.

Please note we have a considerable waiting list – as such if children do not attend for 4 consecutive sessions without notifying us it will be assumed that they no longer require their place.

We are planning to make exciting changes to the sessions which will allow the children to attempt different athletic events and have their times/distances recorded with a Certificate being issued on the completion of all the events.

Here’s a copy of the latest club records. This includes all records set in the first round of league fixtures and the County Championships:

RSCAC club records -16.05.17

Of particular note, Isabel Male’s record in the 200m ranks her 3rd fastest in the country in the U13 age group in 2017. Her 150m time is 4th fastest. Great stuff Isabel!!!
