Seniors
Mens Track and Field
The men’s track and field team currently competes in the Midland League, Division 1 - having previously been a member of the British Athletics League for several years.
Over the past 15 years this team was built upon a group of committed group of senior international athletes such as Steve Phillips (LJ), Gary White (TJ), Gary Herrington (Discus) and John Moreland (Throws). As the team has got older these athletes have proved to be extremely difficult to replace. The current team is a mix of seasoned senior athletes together with a new crop of junior athletes who are making steady inroads into the senior track and field scene. The aim of the club is to regain our position in the BAL at the time when we have the strength in depth to cover all the events at the required level.
The team also competes with great success in the BAL Cup. Along with our Ladies Team, we reached the Cup Final in 2005 & 2006 and last year qualified for the National Plate final – for those clubs outside the British League – finishing 5th.
We are constantly trying to strengthen the team and would be delighted to hear from any athletes – young or old who would like to take part in track and field competitions at any level.
