Sign up for the SAL track & field match - SUNDAY 31st May
Our second Southern Athletics track and field match is on SUNDAY 31st May at Hemel Hempstead - so those who can't compete on a Saturday normally, here's your chance to take part.
After a great start to the track and field season, we're in fifth place in the Southern Athletics League after the first match, we want to continue the momentum and win our next match.
Events where you can compete are:
TRACK

Two scorers are needed for each event and non-scorers are welcome. We also really want our U17 and U20 young athletes to compete as part of the team. Please note though that UK Athletics rules mean that athletes must be at least 15 years old by 31st August 2015 to compete.
Email the team captains to sign up and info. Any standard is welcome: it is a very sociable event and you never know what you could be good at until you try it. The club also organises transport with group train tickets.
