Glorious End to Oxford Mail Cross Country Series - Radley wins five age group overall titles and two team titles
On a fine spring like morning Radleys young athletes continued their excellent cross country form at Oxford on Sunday. It was the final event of the Oxford Mail series and the time for the final placings to be decided. In the U11 girls race Nawal Elkirate continued to dominate and won her fifth race of the season to win the overall girls title. Harriet Batstone continued her impressive end to the season finishing third in her second successive race and Shelbie Jackson on her debut finished a very creditable ninth.
Fundraising Team
It has been decided there will be a club sub-committee for fundraising who will meet quarterly. The committee felt that Alex Ahmet and Vanessa Chung should be on the committee as well as parents who would be willing to spare some time. If you would like to be part of this group please contact a committee member for more information. The first meeting is planned to take place before the end of April 2010.

The 2010 Season Is Fast Approaching!
The outdoor track season starts in early April with the Radley Open meeting on the 11th for most of us (entry forms will be posted on the site as soon as they become available). Athletes should now have agreed suitable targets with their coaches for the 2010 season and developed a plan to achieve these agreed targets.
The last remaining winter competitions are the Oxford Mail XC League on 7th March at Shotover followed by the last indoor Sportshall league at Wheatley on the 21st.
New Rule as of the 1st April 2010
Athletes should take note of this new rule.
Rule reads as follows (Rule 111.14/15)
in line with the change in IAAF rules the UKA rules have been amended. In all competitions for seniors (including those which might include younger athletes according to the rules but excluding open graded meetings). Any athlete deemed responsible for a false start shall be disqualified. In all other competitions, including masters’ events, the old UKA start rules will continue to operate.
Radley Juniors Once Again Dominate
Radley Juniors once again stood out from the crowd in the fourth round of the Oxford Mail Cross Country League at Cirencester Park.
The day started with Nawal Elkirate who won the under 11 girl’s race in 4.41, while Robert Crowther edged out Abingdon’s Robert McKenzie in the under 11 boy’s event.
Christian von Eitzen followed up his victory in the Oxfordshire Schools Cross Country Championship with a thumping win in the under 13 boy’s race. Von Eitzen crossed the line in 7.28 – more than 30 seconds clear of James Currah.
