It was an exciting weekend. Full results for the NAL and EYAL matches are not yet available, but here are some notable highlights:
Alex Alston was selected to represent Great Britain in the 3000m Steeplechase at the European Under 20 Championships in Tallinn, Estonia, later this month. Alex won that event at the England Under 20 Championships two weeks ago, but needed the qualifying time for the European event... ...which he got on the very last day of the qualifying period at the National Athletics League in Stevenage on Saturday 3rd July. Alex achieved this with a new club under 20 record of 9:07.89, whilst coming second behind the club's senior record holder, Dan Jarvis.
Etienne Maughan broke her third club record of the season - this time it was the longstanding Under 17 women’s long jump record that fell, as Etienne leapt 5.64 metres at the Eastern Young Athletes League in Bedford on Sunday 4th July.
Varun Bandi came home with two silver medals and one bronze from the National Junior Wheelchair Racing Championships at Coventry on Saturday 3rd July. His silver medal times were both personal bests, in the 100m (19.07), and 800m (2:19.07).
Congratulations to all three athletes and their coaches.
