Wilts and SW Counties XC Championships POSTPONED to 21st Feb (now Cancelled)

21/12/2020 By Alexander Copping

Notice from the organisers:

You would be all too aware of the upturn in the Coronavirus. Consequently a meeting was held on Sunday evening with the following statement issued to athletes and via this email to you,

“Following a great deal of work and deliberation the decision has been taken to postpone the planned 3rd January Cross-Country event until a provisional date of February 21st 2021.

There are multiple facets to making this decision at this point, the delay in issuing the MOD licence to use the land being one, but the sudden and significant changes to the COVID outbreak being the prime driver.  With so much uncertainty at this time, particularly where further restrictions are highly likely post Christmas, in line with other home nations, this was deemed the only reasonable course to take.”

Can I thank you most sincerely for your support of this event, wish you a safe and happy festive season and hopefully see you in February.

10/12/2020 By Alexander Copping

Entries for the SW Cross Country Championships are now open. The Championships will be held at RNAS Merryfield (8 miles south-east of Taunton). Please read the information leaflet very carefully as the arrangements for the races are very different this year due to Covid restrictions. [http://www.athleticssouthwest.org.uk/]

In addition to the inter-county competition and inter-club competition, this year the Wiltshire Cross Country Championships will also be incorporated into the SW Cross Country Championships. Please make sure to identify yourself as a Wiltshire athlete in your application form.  There will be no Wiltshire team selection. The first four Wiltshire athletes will score [U13/U15/U17/U20], first six athletes in the SW and SM inter-county competitions. Please wear club vests and not county vests.  The closing date is 23rd December 2020. As the results will not be known until Monday 4th January medals will be sent to athletics about a week after the event.

Any questions please send me an email xc@wiltshire-athletics.org.uk

UK CAU Inter-Counties Cross Country Championships 2020

09/03/2020 By Alexander Copping

Meeting Report

Congratulations to all selected Wiltshire athletes who competed at the UK CAU Inter-Counties Cross Country Championships on the 7 March at Prestwold Hall, Lougborough. The weather was kind but the gloopy mud was not. It made the course extremely tough.

Huge congratulations to Bea Wood [City of Salisbury ARC] who won the U17 women’s race. This adds to her U17 women’s title won last year. 

We had scoring teams in seven of the ten races. The U13 boys came 16th with Harry Maxwell [Teambath AC] leading the Wiltshire team home in a very creditable 17th place. The senior men’s team came 22nd with Ed Knudsen [Avon Valley Runners] finishing in 90th place. The U17 women’s team also came 22nd with India Ibbotson [Teambath AC] next home after Bea Wood in 110th place. The U17 men came 27th, Patrick Mochan [Swindon Harriers] first Wiltshire runner in 73rd place. The U15 girl’s team came 30th with Sophie Nichols [City of Salisbury ARC] placing 30th. The U15 boys came 36th with Lukas Bailey [ City of Salisbury ARC] placing 103rd and the U13 girls team came 38th, with Maisie McCalla [Swindon Harriers] coming 148th to lead the Wiltshire team home.

Pictures are available on Facebook and our website and a link to the results.

A pair of Hawkridge wellington boots was left in the Wiltshire tent. Please get in touch with me if you want them back. [xc@wiltshire-athletics.org.uk]
