Oldest Club Record Beaten!
Way back in 1983, when Yate & District Athletic Club was founded, the club weren’t active in any leagues.
However, some athletes were able to compete in Open Meetings and Championships and club records were set.

TEAM AVON MANAGERS’ REPORT: YOUTH DEVELOPMENT LEAGUE UPPER AGE GROUPS (U17/U20) NATIONAL FINAL
Team Avon Team Managers’ report for the 2025 season.
The overall performance by Team Avon athletes was highly commendable, despite the competition being very strong this year. The weather was horrendously wet and windy throughout the day which made jumping and throwing in particular very difficult.
The Officiating Journey of Graham Brooks
My journey as an athletics official began in March 2016, when I attended a field officiating course organised by Avon AA at Clevedon School. Encouraged by my club to become one of the officials needed for both YDL and Avon League fixtures, I stepped into the unknown, motivated by a desire to give back to the sport my daughter was so invested in.
