Yeovil Training

The final date for Wednesday night Yeovil training this Spring is the 28th March.

Training will revert to the field and track behind Thomas Hardye School after this.

The final fixture of the season takes place on a new course in a fabulous setting – the grounds of Kingston Lacy House (approx. 2 miles north of Wimborne on B3082).

The post code is BH21 4EA and OS grid reference 195:ST980019.

As you will see from the course map and schedule, the meeting opens as usual with the combined U17/ U20/ Seniors race at 12.00.

The under-11s, under-13s and under-15 run from 12.50 onwards.

The course itself, is gently undulating grass land (the under-15 races is also includes a section on soft-ish ground through woodland).

Presentations for the season will be made as promptly as possible after the conclusion of the final race of the day.

I look forward to seeing you there.

Team Dorset Trials

(Entry form and competition schedule are on the Event Calendar)
Team Dorset trials day will be held on the 1st April.
We would like to thank BAC for allowing us to use their Open meet for this purpose. Please encourage all athletes who wish to be considered for the YAL or SAL to attend which events are available so we can start our ranking for this year to aid selection. I appreciate that not all events are covered, but it gives us a starting point!
On the day, we will have volunteers available to talk to new parents, hand out information and collect the TD results to start the ranking lists.
Please circulate this widely so that we can ensure a good turn out
Kind Regards
Trudi
(Team Dorset)
