In very testing conditions, as the current wintry weather refused to release its chilly grip, our young athletes performed superbly at the 3rd set of races in the West Midlands Young Athletes Cross Country League held at Warley Woods in Smethwick. Again, a big thank you not only to our heroes, but also to the coaches and parents, without whom such success would be impossible.
Let’s highlight the best bits!
Worthy of special mention are the following:
In the U11 girls, Isabel Vickery (5th); Emilia Dudley (9th); Clara Willetts (10th) and Isla Daly (11th).
The U11 girls team are currently 1st out of 22 teams by an impressive 90 points.
In the U11 boys, Sam Howell (8th); Seb Lees (11th); and Tommy Seager (12th).
The U11 boys team are currently 1st out of 19 teams by an equally impressive 64 points.
In the U13 boys, Miren Randhawa (7th); Oskar Alsop (9th); Yuvan Sidhu (10th) Jack Radnor (12th); George Harradence (15th) and Hakam Allouh (16th)
6 athletes in the top 16 contributed significantly to extending the team’s 1st position out of 20 teams to a lead of a massive 220 points.
AND…
The headline news is that after 3 out of 5 fixtures, the club are overall 2nd out of 22 teams. This is a fantastic achievement. This is down the magnificent effort from EVERY SINGLE ONE of our athletes. They ALL made a contribution and we applaud them for it.

Undetered by the not so great weather, a number of members plus families and a dog, turned out on Saturday to help prepare hurdles for the coming season. We learnt about hurdle weights and how they can be very hard to move, but with the help of a bit of greese free lube (who knew you could even get such stuff) and some great leg exercises we got them sliding back and forth with ease. The rain put a hold on repainting the club house and so that’ll be another adventure later in the year, when the sun has the upper hand over the clouds.
Thank you to all who turned out.
