Club athletes excelled themselves at the Yorkshire, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire county championships last weekend. Across all of the age groups our athletes won 33 gold, 14 silver and 11 bronze medals, setting new championship best performances in the process.
Yorkshire AA Championships
It was a bumper weekend in terms of the club's medal haul (20 gold, 12 silver and 9 bronze), and in the glorious weather for the event. There were a number of PBs set and club records broken and the total number of medals won was 5 more than club athletes won at last year's championships.
Jessica Ennis set a new outdoor PB for the shot putt, and this coupled with the javelin PB that she set at last weeks Northen League, is encouraging for Beijing.
Below are details of our gold medal winners. Apologies, I haven't the time to list all medal winners.
