TRAINING CANCELLED ON SATURDAY
There’s no training for the under 11s, under 13s and under 15s at the track this Saturday. It’s not all bad news though as you can take part in the free-of-charge Essar West Cheshire AC Schools Cross Country Races instead.

Registration is from 9.15am with the first race at 10am.

Mike Lamb was elected as a life vice-president.

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALICE AND LIAM
We’d all like to congratulate sprinters Alice McMahon and Liam Davoren who announced their engagement on Saturday. Looks like we might all need a new hat soon.
