Radley to Compete in Southern Athletics League in 2012
After considerable deliberations, and weighing up the full details of the options available, the Committee have decided that for 2012, they will enter a team in the Southern Athletics League (SAL) instead of the Southern Women’s League (SWL) and Southern Men’s League (SML).
This decision has not been made lightly and with some regret, however we believe it will benefit the Club longer term and provide more appropriate competitive opportunities for out athletes.

Southern Women's League B Team
It has been decided that a SWL B team will be entered for 2011 but with the following criteria applied:
· The team will use either cars or a self-drive mini bus to get to fixtures;
· The A Team must be filled 100% (even if last minute gaps arise);
Radley AC B team – your views needed!
To ensure equality and consistency across the club, reduce expenditure and reduce pressure on some of our athletes (amongst other reason) we are considering the option of no longer having a Southern Women’s League (SWL) B Team.
