The U15 girls hammer throw club record was beaten by Felicity Whiteway on August 16th 2020.
This first round effort of 38.91m was good enough to beat the previous best of 38.39m, which was set by Bethany Jones in 2006.

Some film and photos taken durning the day of the “Pilot Event” held at the Yate Outdoor Sports Complex, home of Yate & District Athletic Club.
The 2 key constraints of the day were 2m social distancing and trying to reduce/eliminate common touch points.
Events comped were Hammer, Javelin, sprints and hurdles.
At this stage the club were working with keeping people in “bubbles” of no more than 6.

Please note the three people standing by the EDM at the hammer throw are husband, wife and son.

Two clubs, two nations... two distinctive vests!
Yate AC wear green with a yellow “sash” that goes over the right shoulder.
Livingston wear yellow with a green “sash” over the left shoulder.
This, the first ‘virtual’ competition between our two great clubs, has been organised by Neuff.co.uk
Any members from U13, through to Masters.can take part.
All the details can be found on our website https://yateac.co.uk/competition/virtual-standing-triple-jump-competition/

We propose that we award one point for every victory in each age group category (ignoring every other entry from other clubs).
So, for example, if a Livingston athlete were to finish in fourth position in the male U17 category and a Yate athlete finished in ninth, that would be a point to Livingston.
A bonus point will be awarded to the club with the highest number of individual entries.
Entry closes 30th June.
Good luck all!
