Track & Field
Message
The Track
season is over until spring next year and my aim is to make, for us, next
season's Track & Field bigger
and better. Mainly I want to focus on attracting new members to come and try it
out. If you read my reports from the past and from club runners’ experiences,
they will tell you just how much fun it is and, most importantly, how much it
will help improve you for the longer distances. It’s not all about running. You
can get involved with field events which have been a great success with members
from the club who have tried the long jump, shot put and javelin and have done
well too. I’m sure everyone knows who I am so, even though it's a long way off
until the start of the new season, I will be looking for those who may be interested
in trying it out I shall be there on
club nights if you want to know anything come and see me if I haven't seen you already.
I will also be requiring helpers, which I
do find the hardest thing to do, but those that come and help out will be helping
the club greatly regarding points added to the team. You also get a free packed
lunch. When helping, it requires people mainly helping out with time keeping on
the finish line but sometimes you may be moved to another location i.e. field
events for measuring.
My ambition is to make up a Championship but this requires a number
of athletes to turn out in force. So, if next season goes well, then I wish to
start the Championship for the
following year.
I would like to get the interest of the
club runners to think about going to Stretford,
Anyway, I hope to see you on the track next
year so please come and talk to me if you are interested but I shall be going
round in due course.
