Thank you to all of you, including those who have added a throw or a jump to your day and those who volunteered for relays every match this season. Particular mention for new events competed in should go to: Glen Foster (200m and 4 x 400m); Josh Goble (100m, 4 x 100m & 4 x 400m); Ed (100m); and Ellise (Hammer).Joshua Woodhouse competed with the team at a YDL match for the first time, running a smart 3,000m, making huge improvements in Long Jump as he went and also joining the Men's 4 x 400m team.NEXT MATCH

nThere was an error in the original match schedule - The next YDL match is NOT next weekend - it is SUNDAY 24 July. This is just at the beginning of the school holidays. I am going on holiday from 9th to 19th July, therefore I will send out the invite to the next match this week and request any of you who can do, to respond by Thursday 7th July.

n********* Anyone who responds AFTER 7th July that they can compete, will definitely be able to do so (I am sure we will not be oversubscribed) but may not get all preference events. Please assume you are competing, even though I will not get back to you until July 20th - i.e. four days before the event ******

nWe will take everyone who is available. There will be a coach. Last year, it was a great day, even though we only had 15 people. So, please, if you are not already away on family holiday, consider joining us. We need to try to beat Southampton!
