Club records tumble at SAL #1
Firstly, I would like to say thank you to Jerry & John for offering me position of men's A team manager and thank you to anyone who has given me tips & advice, I'm sure some of it came in useful somewhere.
The first SAL match of the season was a home fixture at Parliament Hill. The weather was dry, bright & blustery, the latter hampering the sprinters. Regardless of that, Heathside still managed to finish a terrific second. Highlights include 5 (!) club records: Angelica (discus), Xelia (javelin), Iva (long jump), Dave Walton (pole vault) & Kazimierz AKA Kaz (javelin). The outstanding performance for me was Wanda (pictured) in the steeplechase as her time was faster than the existing league record. Sadly though, there was no water jump, which invalidates her time.
Angelica, Iva, Xelia, Kaz, Jeremy & Hubert all made their debut for the senior team and we hope to see them at future matches.
London Heathside is currently 6th (of 16) with one match still outstanding to complete the first fixture round in the league. Even though we could still drop down to 8th after this weekend, this is a good start I hope we can capitalise on, so it’s all hands on deck for the next SAL match, which is on 19th May at Abingdon.
The first SML match is on the 5th May at Bedford. Tony has arranged a minibus for anyone needing transport. As Tony is away please let me (Bill Washburn) know if you are available and would like to compete.
