Congratulations to Lois Fordham who has set a new U15 girls pole vault club record with her jump of 3.00m at the EYAL at the weekend.

Last Saturday, at the Bedfordshire AAA open meeting, Glen Kerr threw 55.39 metres in the Hammer competition. This is not only an M50 club record, but also places Glen 11^th on the UK all time list for Men's 50 hammer.

Congratulations Glen!

Tenny has won another medal at the World Masters Indoor Championships in Gainesville in Florida, taking his medal haul up to a total of 3. 

He has won a gold medal as part of the M65 4x200m relay team to add to the 2 silvers he had already won earlier in the championships. 

He is now taking a well-deserved week off in Miami!

Congratulations Tenny!
