Upper age group team are 5th in opening YDL match
Like their younger counterparts in the lower age group YDL, the U17’s and U20’s along with their composite partners from City of Portsmouth AC made their debut in the premier league of the YDL in a freezing cold Eton on Sunday.
With the rain pouring down at the start of the match and the temperature recorded at a balmy 6 degrees the team put in some amazing performances and in the field events actually won the match. The strength of the track events however was shown when the U17 mens A string race was won in 10.64 secs and ultimately this led to us coming 5th on the day despite some top class performances from the composite team.
Whilst Blackheath & Bromley look a class apart in this league, the gap between the 2nd & 6th place teams is actually very close and it will be all to play for in the last two league matches.
