Track & Field Review - U11

After a review of the oldest age groups, it is time to turn to the youngest age groups the U11's for my next review of the track & field season. What a year it has been for the age that compete exclusively in the quad kids format of 75m, 600m, LJ & howler throw.

For the boys, Declan Dew (all the U11's named are coached within the U11 academy) had an amazing season breaking the club record in the 75m by running 10.2 secs on the same day that training partner Samuel Barton ran the same time to share the new record. Declan also broke the clubs age group LJ record with a leap of 4.60m and the overall quad kids points total record with a haul of 279 points. Evan Perry ran a time of 1.51.84 secs in the 600m to go 2nd on the clubs all time record list. The 4 boy team of Declan Dew, Samuel Barton, Evan Perry & Hugo holt went 2nd on the clubs all time team boys score list and when added with the girls of Liane Marquis-Onibuje, Eva Raftery, Lottie Osman & Alice Pate broke the overall team points score with an amazing 1824 points.

For the girls, Lianne Marquis-Onibuje's time of 10.9 secs equalled the club record for the 75m. Lottie Osman's leap of 3.74m went 2nd in the clubs all time age group Long jump list and Eva Raftery's throw of 36.51m went 2nd in the clubs all time howler throw list.

All these athletes now move to the U13 age group where they move to the traditional track & field events and all U11 records have been updated accordingly on the website.
