The women produced a good result at Tamworth, finishing in 3rd place on the day but only a few points behind first place. This leaves them with the chance of promotion if they can produce another strong performace in the next match.

spare. Rammel Houson won the B race in 12.8.
Katy Knowles finished 2nd in her 800M to a very good athlete from Kettering

Emily Diamond (U17) came 2nd in the senior 200M B race with 26.3 and finished

Senior 4 X 100M Team of Emma Heath, Rammel Houson, Lauren Yeates and Emily
Diamond won comfortably. This was a very impressive performance winning by
over 20m.
U15 4 X 100M Team of Kim Yeates, Clare Dickens, Ruth Stringer and Kathryn
Newman finished 5th out of 7 and
Senior 4 X 400M Team of Katy Knowles, Emma Reed, Leila Corfield and Lauren
Yeates finished 2nd. Leila ran a very good 3rd leg to bring us from 4th
place to 1st.
I was extremely pleased with the enthusiasm from all the girls and women,
who at times had to compete in awful conditions with heavy rain and a very
stiff wind down the back straight.
My thanks once again to Tracey Martin (Track Judge) and Mike Strange (Time
Keeper) as well as a big thanks to our judges from Yate, Tony and Pat
Jeffries, who officiated for the field events.
