Some very good news to start the year that is almost upon us. Kelly Sotherton of Birchfield Harriers and Dave Phillips of Massey Fergusson have both been awarded an MBE. Kelly’s award recognises her “services to Track and Field Athletics and the Promotion of Women’s Sport” and Dave’s recognises his considerable “Charitable Fundraising”. Well done both.
The ground at Churchfields is still unsuitable and the weather forecast is not great so we have decided to move the County XC Champs to Warley Woods. More to follow.
A reminder that the closing date for the Warwickshire County Cross Country Championships is fast approaching – this Thursday (12th December).
We are using the new EA sponsored XC entry system for the first time this year. We have had feedback from some clubs that it is more time consuming to do club/bulk entries but there is a method for them which I wont explain here but please get in touch for details.
Many of you will know that parkruns and a recent senior cross country match at Churchfields were cancelled. Hopefully the venue will be OK in January but we are looking at alternatives just in case and if anything changes we will let you know.
In the meantime have a very Merry Christmas and we hope you all have a very prosperous 2020.
