Another good turn out for yr 7+ athletics preparation for competition at Rednock, a great first Thursday Summer Athletics and a slightly hot and bothered last Muddy Running session. Many thanks to all the coaches, parents and supporters who help to make these events happen. It feels like effort paid off when we see these young athletes having fun, doing sport.
So Wednesday evening preparation for competition athletics sessions are set to continue at Rednock, and our Thursday programme runs now for 11 more weeks. This programme will finish with our very own DRC Athletics Championship event (provisionally 21st July).
Next Saturday (12th May at noon) is our one off Orienteering event; so some running around trying to find flags with electronic ‘dibbers’ in the Rednock School grounds followed by some cake. What’s not to like!
12th May is also the Gloucestershire AAA Track and Field Championships in Blackbridge so if you would like to try out your athletics skills in a competition environment this is a chance to do that. Please let Dave know if you’re interested in doing this.
We will soon be sending out some more information about our Yate athletics sessions, so watch this space but just so that you can put the dates in the diary they are 2.30pm on; 19/05, 26/05, 02/06, 16/06 and 23/06. (PS All our programme and event dates are on the Juniors page of the DRC website.)
Thank you to those who have provided feedback already about Saturdays it would be good to hear from a few more of you. You can email dursleyrunnjngclubjuniors@gmail.com or just message me.
Good luck to anyone entering the Brewer Games this weekend. Enjoy the sunny bank holiday and I will look forward to next week’s activities.
