Noticeboard
Congratulations to the 11 Northern Ireland juniors who put in some of
the best performances at the Junior Inter-regional Champs in recent
times!!
The team of the 3 Fermo and 8 LVO juniors all had great runs at the
individual competition held on the army training area of Feldom
ranges in the foothills of the Pennines.
Performance of the day was by Aine McCann who won the W16 race by a
margin of 2 mins. This and other strong runs guided N.Ireland to 9th
overall, ahead of South Central, East Anglia and the hosts from the
North East.
The relays were held at Rossmede, another army training area.
N.Ireland could only make up a Boys and Girls team, and they had good
solid results (both finished 18th overall).
The team finished the weekend off in 10th position overall a
remarkable result for such a small team (11 members out of a possible
24).
Well done to all involved!!
