NORWICH UNION SOUTH WEST REGIONAL FINALS  SPORTSHALL 2004

 

Sadly many of the Wiltshire clubs declined to enter any of their athletes which was a shame as those who did come, many for the first time, were up against experienced club athletes. Apart from the U13 Boys who were hard to recruit, the other teams were virtually full which was rewarding in itself.

 

I must single out Wessex & Bath and Pewsey RC for special thanks as they more than made up the bulk of the team.

 

Competition was extremely hard so I was particularly delighted with the Silver Medal won by Sophie Upton (U13G W&B) in the 6 Lap Time Trial and her 5th place in the High Jump.  Well done also to Rebecca Watson (U13G Pewsey) for her equal 4th in the Speed Bounce

In the U15G, there was a very good Bronze Medal for Danielle Fox (W&B) in the 2 Lap Time Trial.  She also came equal 4th in the Standing Long Jump.

In the U13 Boys, Luke Euston (Pewsey)  ran very well in the 6 Lap Time Trial and came 4th.

 

CONGRATULATIONS to everyone who took part.  They were a very spirited bunch who never gave up, tried their very best and came away still smiling

 

My thanks also to the County who contributed considerably to the cost of the coach to Exeter.

 

I have decided that there will be Squad training sessions in the Autumn which will better prepare Wiltshire in future.
