| Summer athletics review. 30 September, 2013 | | The season usually starts in earnest with the Lincolnshire County Championships in May, many of my athletes won titles in the hurdles, triple jump,long jump and all throwing events. I even got in on the act by picking up two bronze medals in the shot putt and discus!! The Lincolnshire League holds 5 matches throughout the year, and they are great for giving athletes of all abilities a chance to compete regularly. My athletes performed well, none more so than my son, Kieran, who set personal bests in the 800, 1500, shot putt, discus and javelin. I then had an idea to really challenge him, so entered him in the Loughborough University open meetings, he responded brilliantly by setting personal bests in the 800 metres, discus and shot putt - well done son!! St. George's Academy in Sleaford asked me to work with them again and they won the East Midlands Schools track and field cup. Following on from that Queen Elizabeth Grammar in Horncastle asked for my help and they won their district titles for the first time ever!!! A nice end of season event is the Lincoln Kids triathlon which has over 300 children taking part, my son Kieran took part in the 13/14 years event and did us proud. | » Back to News Index |
