East Cork Track & Field Champioships

Each year the East Cork Championships represent the start of the Track and Field competitions for our athletes. This year they were spread over two successive Saturdays, hosted by Midleton the first week and Youghal the second. With a relaxed and friendly atmosphere they provide the opportunity for our more serious athletes to test their skill and fitness prior to the County Championships, but also allow our newer or less competitive athletes to dip their toe in the water. And so it was this year. Over the two days the club was well represented across a number of the events, including the shot, discus and javelin in which we’ve had little involvement in the past. Judging by the smiles we had an enjoyable time, helped no doubt by the fair weather. Congratulations to all who took part, whether you won medals or not. It is taking part, trying to improve your own abilities, and being part of a club that matters!
