EARLY CHRISTMAS PRESENTS

LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION…

Club members are reminded that England Athletics have arranged for a film crew to attend our track training session at Ellesmere Port Sports Village on Tuesday, 20th November. It’s everyone’s opportunity to explain why our club has won the North West Athletics Club of the Year Award for a third successive year and how we value our volunteer coaches, officials and helpers.

PLEASE HELP YOUR CLUB

The Club would be grateful if you and/or a friend can volunteer to help out at the Essar Chester Round The Walls Race, at Chester Racecourse, on Wednesday, 26th December.

Those club members who are running the race should provide someone to help out.
