Sussex Combined Events Championships We only had 3 of our athletes competing at this year’s Combined Events championships at the Sutton track – but all 3 came home with a medal. In fact 2 of them came first and so brought home the gold medal. Rachel Tyler competed in the under 15 girls 5 event...

Last matches of the track and field season On Friday evening our rather depleted under 15 team went down to Brighton for the Sussex Under 15 league grand final – and while we had 7 boys we only had 3 girls. Of course we weren’t the only club to be hit by late summer holidays...

Recent matches With the arrival of the school summer holidays numbers attending matches and training have dropped off. Last Thursday evening we had 5 boys and 5 girls for our under 15 match at a very hot K2 – but of course most of the other teams were affected as well although Crawley in particular...

Because of today’s heat we are cancelling UNDER 13 training at Imberhorne this evening. For other age-groups and for the middle distance group we are planning to go ahead with training at Imberhorne – but we understand that some athletes may feel it is too hot for them to do any useful training. At the...

Recent matches We’ve had a couple of matches this week with the under 13s going to K2 on Tuesday evening and then the under 13s and under 15s going to Lewes on Saturday. At this time of year we know that we will be missing some athletes as the school summer holidays approach and the...
