Slough Chiltern League

We had the largest turn out of girls so far this season. Chloe May and Melissa Chapman had very good runs finishing 46 and 64th respectively in the U11s. A great effort was seen from Grace Cross and Zarah Taylor who ran their first ever cross country race despite only just joining the club. This was a fantastic achievement and should inspire other athletes to come and have a go at the next event, all you need is enthusiasm and determination! Becca Mead continues to improve and finished well in the U13 race. read more

County Champs

Sarah Plummer, battled hard in the U13s race and achieved an excellent 5th place in only her second race for the club. Owen Drabwell and Henry Mead ran well to achieve 14th and 23rd places respectively.

The U15 boys fielded a strong team lead by Jordan Clay in 5th, with a closely fought battle between the 3 other boys with Lloyd Milliken 10th, Joe 11th and Charlie 12th.

This result meant that they won the team silver medals. Billy Mead and Brian Foulger had a good race with Billy finishing in 9th, just ahead of Brian in 11th. Well done to all our runners for doing LBAC proud. read more
