A big thank you to all the athletes who took part in this league meeting

DASH finished 5th out of the 6 teams competing, an improvement from the 6th place finish we achieved in the first event. The difference in results undoubtedly stems from the fact we had more athletes competing at this event.

We had two throwers in Owen and Maisie who competed in 5 events combined which made a real difference in the points that the club scored.

The sprint team throughout the day demonstrated a real togetherness and came home second in a thrilling 4x100m U17 relay, demonstrating that Brendan's 'half time' diet of doughnuts had no impact on performance levels

Rhys, as ever, competed hard in three events.

Success was also had by members of the middle distance group where Luke broke his PB over 3000m and Jacob performing well in the 400m despite on having been training for the event for a short time.

DASH also had the athlete who scored the most points of the day in Lucy.

The best may have been saved for last when DASH brought home the win for the 4x400m relay, the team consisted of Jacob, Jessica, Luke and Lucy.

A big thanks to the following:

• David Bennet and Robert Williams, our two officials for the day
• Ian and Steve for their coaching duties
• In particular Rheanna for carrying out her Starters Assistant duties whilst trying to do a bit of coaching and Debra for sitting in the hut throughout the day as official result recorder.

A lot of time and effort goes into these events by all the above who give up their time willingly whilst often having to combine their own jobs and parenting responsibilities.

We would like to encourage as many athletes as possible to attend the last event of the YDL league and see if we can move up the leaderboard.The better our athletes do the more we are noticed and the more likely athletes will gravitate towards our club.
