BRITISH ATHLETICS LEAGUE PREMIERSHIP – The third of four fixtures took place at Scotstoun on Saturday 11 July.

A much weakened team made the long journey to Glasgow for the 3rd round of the BAL Premiership. The efforts of the athletes at the British Championships the previous week took its toll as did the unfortunate clash with the English Schools where a lot of our talented juniors were competing and of course last but not least the 5 Junior club members who have been selected for the European U20s which start this week. However, everybody competed well and volunteered to take on additional events to score the all-important “extra” point. It was therefore very frustrating that at the end of the day we finished in 6th place just 5 points behind 4th place which would have been good enough to take us top of the table whereas we are now in 4th place.

One of the stars on the day was GLEN WATTS who ran his first ever 400m Hurdles and then returned 45 minutes later to win his speciality, the 3000m S/C in a SB. We had an impressive double first from MICHAEL CALLEGARI and RICHARD CHARLES who ran as a team to finish 50m clear of the rest of the field. We had another double first in the Discus where ZANE DUQUEMIN and ANGUS MCINROY defeated a quality field. SAM TAYLOR-OUTRIDGE had another SB in the javelin and GREGOR MACLEAN threw a PB to make up for his disappointment in the pole vault.

The event of the meeting was the high jump where a great competition captivated the crowd when both the SBH jumpers had outdoor SBs of 2.24, for a double first, with DAVID SMITH just edging out ALLAN SMITH on countback. We still have a chance of winning the Premiership title at Round 4 on Saturday 8 August at Lee Valley, but a full turnout will be required.
