Middlesex Youth Athletics League (MYAL) - Meeting 2
Another dominant display by the Club’s Juniors at the 2nd MYAL meeting of the season winning all but one of the age groups and including 21 event wins.
Simon Baker provides all the details :
“ This was a reverse of the first match with Finsbury Park hosting the track and Perivale the field events. Despite clashing with half term the two days saw some spectacular athletics as the Juniors get back up to speed after losing a year of their development. 6 League Records were broken over the two days and also national age group leading times. The Club also successfully rose to the challenge of providing Electronic Timing thanks to the efforts of Jake Spencer, Tom Bedwell, Chris Hartley and Zac.
Saturday saw a mix of 100m, 200m, 1500m and Hurdle races with Sunday including a full field event program with Discus replacing Javelin. With a number of Heathsiders missing it was a chance for others to step into the limelight or try new events. While Shaftesbury dominated the sprint events, which included Angel McLeod producing the fastest time by a U13G this year, Heathside excelled over the 1500m with 4 wins from 7 races.
Again the Club dominated the match winning every age group apart from U17 Women where we had to settle for 2nd. There were 21 event wins for Kiara Corkin (U13G 1500m), Gabriel Edwards (U13B 100m, Long Jump), Max Wassermann (U13B 75mH, Shot), Jerome Henry (U13B Discus), Mia Rosen (U15G 1500m), Martha Jolly (U15G Long Jump), Imani Quamina (U15G Shot), Ivy Paitoo (U15G Discus, Hammer), Benjy Bediako (U15B 1500m), Trey Corlis (U15B 80mH, High Jump, Long Jump) Etienne Munday (U17M High Jump), Thomas Wassermann (U15B Discus, Shot), Milton Cooper (U15B Hammer), Magdeleine Paitoo (U17W Long Jump) . In addition a host of club records fell with Kiara Corkin in the U13G 1500m, Trey Corlis U15B 80mH, Imani Quamina U15G 75mH and Ivy Paitoo U13G Discus.
The U13 Girls were without Suraya and Tara which saw deputant Nyemah Anderson record the fastest time of the Heathsiders. The highlight however was the masterful display of front running by Kiara Corkin in the 1500m leading the race from the start to record a time of 5:04.87 taking 55s off her PB and smashing the club record and taking her to 18th in the UK Rankings. At Perivale amongst some great performances were Syrah Bradshaw (U11G) recording another 6m plus Shot and Elkie Baker in her first ever Shot and Discus competition recording 7.08m and 19.06m respectively, the latter the 5th furthest by an U13G nationally.
The U13 Boys saw a host of great performances with Edward Metcalf and Koppany Szentes in the 1500m working together just failing to run down the Met League Champion Arthur Phillips (SBH) who had gone out hard from the start. Gabriel Edwards (U11B) again produced another series of great performance finishing 1st in the 100m recording the 11th fastest time by an U13B this year. On Sunday after two no jumps in the long jump he pulled out a 4.39m jump to win the event. Debuting in the Discus Jerome Henry who 2 weeks before had never picked one up won the competition. Max Wassermann improved his hurdle PB 0.25s to win the event with non-scorer Tristian Willhof-King the fastest.
The U15 Girls saw two fantastic tactical 1500m races with Mia Rosen kicking with 200m to finish first ahead of Issy Watkins. In the non scoring race Izzy's sister Amelia was first ahead of Amara Odegberin. Imani Quamini broke her U15 75mH while finishing 2nd. Ivy Paitoo who is U13 stepped up the U15's and recorded 16.37m in the Hammer and 20.27m in the Discus the 4th furthest by an U13 Girl this year despite throwing a 250g heavier Discus this would also have been an U15G Club Record.
Trey Corlis again excelled for the U15 Boys finishing 2nd in the 100m in a new PB by almost 0.5s he also set new club records in the 80m Hurdles and set a new Long Jump PB by almost 0.5m. Benjy Bediako returned to the track to win the 1500m race, kicking hard from the 250m mark to win the race and lower his PB by 11s. Thomas Wassermann won the Discus and had a good shot competition.
The U17 women saw many U15's step up an age group with Magdeline Paitoo 3rd in the 100m and 200m. Lucy Corkin improved her 200m PB by 5s and her 1500m PB by a massive 45s. The Club had a full compliment in the Hammer with both Naya and Fabienne recording PB's.
In the U17 Men Etienne Munday won the High Jump and finished 2nd in the Long Jump. Roni Kizikala was leading the 1500m into the home straight but was out-sprinted by a Highgate Harrier and had to settle for 2nd place. Michael Lee debuted in the Discus after again only trying the event for the first time two weeks ago.
Thank you again for all the Officials (including debutants Andrew and Miriam), Coaches, Volunteers, Parents and Athletes that helped ensure the two days of athletics went so well.
The next MYAL will be a one day meeting at Parliament Hill on 26th June. The Club sits on top of the league points with an incredible 106pts out ot a total possible 108 pts. Again athletes who want to compete should let their Coaches know.”
