Dates for you diary

/in , , , /by

Firstly we have just had confirmation that Chris Jones CEO of England athletics is visiting Yate and District AC on Tuesday evening 26th September 2017! There is no set format, he will arrive before 7.00 pm  and be escorted around looking at our facilities, watching training, meeting coaches and athletes alike. I appreciate some groups are on a break but it would be great to have the track looking busy if possible.  Photos and an article will then appear in the EA news letter in the near future. Please support this evening if you can

The T&F season is not quite over: on Sunday September 24th there are the Exeter Pentathlons: Exeter Harriers have already had enough entries to justify going with their event (which hasn’t always been the case in past seasons), but would welcome more. This meeting will be the last chance for many U13/U15/U17 athletes to compete in that age group. Details of the event can be found at. http://exeterharriers.org.uk/competitions/exeter-harriers-combined-events/
Don’t forget the cross country season is approaching, in case you don’t know, we have an agreement with Westbury Harriers that you can run for them (like they do for us on the track) at no extra cost (except the run vets) in cross countries or road races, if you are interested please let Ellen know so the appropriate forms can be filled in.
We have been asked to participate in an anonymous survey if you can please go to the link below and help a university.
Finally look out for Awards night tickets that will be on sale soon.

Getting ready for the new season

/in , , /by

Now we’re getting really close to the start of the season, we need to make sure that the track and surrounding areas are ready to host our first events. As you probably already know, Yate Outdoor Sports Complex is run by volunteers from the club, and so we need your help and support to make sure that we’re ready.

So, we’d like to invite you all to come along on the afternoon of Saturday 25th March to get stuck into clearing the banks, cleaning the stands, repairing and painting the jumping boards, cleaning out the steeple chase pit, raking the sandpits, greasing the hurdle weights, extending the shot put demarcations…….and loads more!

The long term weather forecast is looking bright and sunny for Yate on Saturday (no honestly it really is!), so why not stay after training and join us for the afternoon?

And if you’ve not already done so – bring your completed membership forms with you – renewals need to be in by the end of March if you want to compete in April!
