Senior League & NEGP Reports
A busy week of track and field action included plenty of involvement from our young athletes at the inaugural NESDL match, as well as at the NEGP on Wednesday evening. On Saturday, Amber, Hannah and Millie took part in the first ever North East Senior Development League match at Shildon. In superb conditions, they all came out as event winners on the day. Hannah took the win in the high jump with a best of 1.55m to open her outdoor season, whilst Amber started with a strong 100m and followed this with a superb long jump performance, leaping out to 5.08m to take the win. Millie Train was also involved in the long jump where she won the “B” event with a new PB of 4.94, before she scored a big PB in the Javelin. Victory in the triple jump with an outdoor PB completed a fine day. On Wednesday, we had large squad of juniors competing at the NEGP at Monkton Stadium. Ben Compton opened his outdoors season with a massive PB in the 75m, followed by a solid shot put. Fearne recorded an equal PB in the high jump, whilst George was just outside his PB over 1500m. India Gorvett set a new personal best over 75m, and produced a really strong shot put. Liliana set a fine pace on her 1500m debut, whilst Luke Pichler produced really strong performances in both the shot put and pole vault. Millie Train was in splendid form in the triple jump, with all 3 valid jumps exceeding her previous outdoor PB set on Sunday, whilst Caitlin smahed her PB in the 300m, whilst Isla’s performance was hampered by an extremely late start and tricky lane draw in the final race of the day, but she still put in a strong performance.

Hazy sunshine and light winds made for good conditions for our NEYDL team to open their season at Monkton on Sunday. Alongside our Alnwick team-mates it was a fantastic day and we took a brilliant 3rd place. Thanks for all who were involved, including our athletes, officials, parents and supporters.
U13/U15/U17 Boys Its was a fantastic day for our 5 boys across the various age groups – Harry made his NEYDL debut and acquitted himself superbly in the U13 age group. He was a superb 4th in the 100m, and 5th in the 200m, whilst his 3.26m leap in the long jump gave him a brilliant 3rd place! Jacob Robertson was making his club debut in the U15 age group and took the win in the high jump with 1.45m, before a brilliant 3rd place in the 100m. Oscar Pichler was in sparkling form, with a huge PB in the long jump of 3.47m, and victories in the javelin and shot put. George Bryce continued his sensational outdoor season, taking over half a minute off his 1500m to take a superb 2nd place. In the U17 competition, Luke Pichler started the day with a solo high jump competition, which resulted in a superb new personal best of 1.85m.

U13 Girls We had 3 girls in the youngest age group, with India putting her experience to good use in her 2nd NEYDL campaign.
