The 1st of the Team Swift series event on the V718 was held tonight and the results are;

McDougal 21.48 (That’s Steve McCall who don’t listen to Keith:-)

Al 21.57

Andy 21.58

I’m so proud that 3 of us got under 22 minutes in an easterly wind that measured 20 MPH, we were ecstactic in the HQ afterwards and we all feel we can shave a few more seconds off our all new PBs (Andy took 30 seconds of his old one, I took 53 and Al a massive1:16!!!)

All I can say is Allez les Verts and lets break the club record again and again!

Results are on this link.  http://www.arborwood.com/awforums/show-topic-1.php?start=1&fid=6272&taid=41&topid=22294&ut=1242273695

Hi,

I have managed to secure funding to deliver a block of youth sessions , projected for Thursday evenings at West Mills fields ( where the clubhouse is!)

The club has to fill in the forms for this, and the plan is we will buy in coaching time initially but can potentially look at training any thorpers interested in being a coach in the longer term if there is interest

 We will also need helpers to marshal; etc, and the potential for the club to gain new members both youth and parent is out there

 Additionally on 25th July Mirfield is hosting an Olympic countdown event, part of a national series at the  showground in the town centre.  The date of   this is linked to the national events, and sadly i can’t be there as I have to go to London to register for the LEL start. 

 There will be youth races around the field and helpers would be appreciated and we can look at putting on a display to promote the club

 I need to know if there is interest from the club otherwise we will decline the funding and opportunity 

Martyn
