UK YOUTH DEVELOPMENT LEAGUE SOUTHERN PREMIER 1 – The final fixture took place last Sunday at Allianz Park.
A good day at Allianz Park saw us secure a clear 2nd place, within 50 points of a dominant Blackheath squad and well clear of 3rd placed Windsor. Our final position of 2nd in the division, our best performance for some years, guarantees our place in the National Final. It has been a long season but we can now look forward to a break from team competition and selecting our best team for the National Final in Birmingham on Sunday 3 September where it will be tough to beat not only Blackheath, but also Birchfield from the Midlands and the composite teams from Edinburgh and Glasgow representing the North.
We had a number of new and existing members competing for the first time and we hope they all enjoyed the experience. With a number of athletes away on holiday, it was great to see volunteers coming forward to fill gaps. There were many good performances, which are detailed below in the results section. New member EVAN CAMPBELL had a good day in the U17 age group with victory in the Shot, 2nd place in the High Jump and 3rd place in the 100m Hurdles with all 3 performances being SBH bests for the season. ALEX PETTY also made an impressive debut taking victory in both the “B” string 100m Hurdles and 400m Hurdles. There was a hat-trick of wins from OLIVER GRAHAM in the Hammer, Discus and Shot. The highlight was the new club record of 43.94 set by the U17 men’s 4 x 100m team of ROBERT THOMAS, MICHAEL ADEBAKIN, JOSH KUMAR and MICAH AGYEPONG which moves them up to 5th in the UK Club rankings.
HANNAH FOSTER continues her excellent form after her victory and PB the previous weekend in the U17 300m at the Schools International in Dublin with victory in the U20 200m and a new PB. JAZZ SEARS also continued her excellent form after her victory and PB the previous weekend in the U17 Triple Jump at the Schools International in Dublin with a win in her speciality event. It was also good to see a win in the U17High jump and PB from KARA ONUIRI.

Well done to everyone who competed and of course to our 3 athletes, ELLIE BAKER, GEORGE EVANS and DOMINIC ASHWELL who were doing great things at the European Junior Championships in Grosseto, Italy.

COACHING UPDATE – Over the past few months Allianz Park has been creaking at the seams, with so many new Young Athletes joining the Club, the track on training evenings has sometimes resembled the M25 on a bad day. To meet this demand, our Coaches are introducing a revised coaching programme for all age groups by recruiting and training new volunteers. As part of this plan, the endurance group coaches, COLIN GODFREY, KARL BULMAN and DAVE WEIGHTMAN, all passed the ‘Athletics Coach’ course last weekend. A similar strategy is now being followed by the sprints and jumps groups.

UK WOMEN’S ATHLETICS LEAGUE – The final match of the season took place at Bromley last Sunday.
Unfortunately, some late withdrawals and injuries, plus 2 unfortunate disqualifications, left the team on the back foot. The result was that we finished the day behind both Swansea Harriers and a resurgent Blackheath & Bromley, resulted in the team’s relegation by the narrowest of margins.

There were wins from LILY BECKFORD U23 (400m), and double victories in the pole vault from JADE IVE and ALEXA EICHELMANN U20, in the discus from JADE LALLY and SHADINE DUQUEMIN and in the javelin from JO BLAIR and KELLY BRAMHALD.

The team and, it’s manager, NICOLE were of course disappointed but determined to rebuild with the influx of eligible athletes from the successful YDL squad.

EASTERN YOUNG ATHLETICS LEAGUE – The third match of the season took place in Peterborough on Sunday 2 July.
Congratulations on another excellent day with yet another 2nd place finish, and as you can see by the Result/ Team Positions below we are in an excellent position overall. Apart from you, the Athletes, I also wish to express our thanks to the Team Managers and Officials/Helpers whose hard work has helped in our success this season.
This match you went 2 better that the last match, with an astonishing 59 personal best and 8 seasons best performances, in which many were from our recent new members.

Team Result – 1st Nene Valley (748.5 points), 2nd SBH (727), 3rd Dacorum & Tring (627.5), 4th Peterborough (389), 5th Colchester Harriers (348), 6th Luton (152), 7th Biggleswade (134).
League Positions after 3 rounds – 1st Havering (21 league points – 2487.5 match points), 2nd Ipswich (21 – 2357.5), 3rd Nene Valley (20 – 2168.5), 4th Bedford (19 – 2168.5), 5th SBH (18 – 2245.5), 6th Chelmsford (18 – 2065)

With the final two fixtures being held at Allianz Park on 30 July and 13 August, we have the opportunity of finishing in the top six in the League. Which would mean we would then qualify for the Final which is on Sunday 3 September, and provisionally will be at Bedford providing they finish in the top six.

The next fixture is on Sunday 30 July at Allianz Park, where we are up against Chelmsford, Hertford & Ware/Enfield & Haringey, Luton, Peterborough, Stevenage & North Herts and Thurrock.

WORLD UPGRADES FOR 4x400m WOMEN’S TEAM – Shaftesbury’s LEE MCCONNELL who was a member of the GB&NI 4x400m relay team in the 2009 World Championships in Athens, and 2011 in Daegu, South Korea are set to be promoted from fourth to third place, after ANASTASIYA KAPACHINSKAYA – part of the Russian relay team – had all her results annulled from 2008 due to doping.

LEE started off her athletics career with Shaftesbury Barnet Harriers in 1997 as an Under 19 High Jumper, achieving her personal best in 2000 with a height of (1.88m) which is still the current SBH club record. The following year she switched to the 400m where she made rapid progression. In 2002, she won individual medals at the Commonwealth Games 400m Silver in Manchester and European Championships 400m Bronze in Munich, and was fourth in the World Cup in Madrid, setting a lifetime best of 50.82 also the current SBH club record. The following season she enhanced her reputation as being a championship performer by reaching the final at the World Championships in Paris, placing seventh.
After reaching the semi-finals at the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, she decided to switch to the 400m hurdles but despite having the potential to be a world-class exponent at that discipline, the switch did not fully materialise but LEE did win a 2006 Commonwealth bronze medal in Melbourne, setting a lifetime best of 55.25.
LEE remained an invaluable member of the British 4x400m, greatly contributing to successive bronze medal winning performances at the 2005 World Championships in Helsinki and 2007 in Osaka, but she was not fit for the 2008 Olympic Games 4x400m relay in Beijing, having to withdraw through injury. 2009 started off well for her, but injury curtailed her performances and although a member of the 4x400m relay squad at the World Championships in Athens, it was not until her last race of the season in the Shanghai Grand Prix that she managed to run somewhere near her potential with a 400m season’s best of (51.45).
2010 started brightly with a convincing win in the European Championships Trials at Birmingham (51.55), but a below-par run in the championships in Barcelona where she finished in fourth place in her heat, then went on to win a 4x400m bronze medal. At the end of the year LEE ran the 200m/400m at the Commonwealth Games in Delhi, finishing 5th & 4th respectively.
The following 2 years she reached the semi-final of the 2011World Championships in Daegu, South Korea and the 2012 London Olympics Games.
LEE final race of her career was winning the Scottish National 200m Senior title in February 2013.
