Huntingdonshire AC hosted its first-ever Eastern Veterans League match at the St Ivo Outdoor Centre and deemed its efforts a great success. Ten Hunts AC athletes took part competing against Peterborough AC, Ryston AC, and West Norfolk AC. In the Mens age 40-49 section, Peter Downhill cruised to an easy win in the 400m, while Mike Scott a massive three-quarters of a minute ahead of his nearest rival. Peter and Mike later teamed up with Hanno Fischer and Richard Phelan to beat the Ryston team into second place by 40 seconds. In the field, Richard Phelan notched up a victory in the high jump. In the Mens age 50 59 section, Geoff Brewster ran out a very easy winning by 50 seconds, while Martin Safford clinched the shot putt win. On the womens side, Penny Butcher was a convincing winner in the Womens age 45-54 high jump with a clearance of 1.20. The team travels to Kings Lynn next month for its final meet of the season. Thanks to Mike Hayball, Peter Dunn, Peter Skinner, Paul Hayball (main track judge!), Penny Butcher, and Matt Leadbitter for organising and officiating this meet.

A sizeable team of 30 travelled to compete in the Eastern Young Athletes League at Peterborough. With the weather on its best behaviour, Hunts AC athletes took the opportunity to gain lots of personal bests. These improvements are also very much a reflection of the efforts put in by our club coaches. Top achievers of the day were Under 13 Boy Dennis Penny-Toure and Under 17 Woman Lily Seach. Dennis once again picked up his usual double victory in the long jump and 75m hurdles, while Lily captured the top spot in both the 200m and 300m. Backing Dennis up was Harry Whybrow who crossed the line first in the B string 75m hurdles and George Seach who long jumped a personal best for the win. In the throwing section, Jonathan Edwards pulled out the longest throw of his career to win the Under 17 Mens discus. His distance of 42.04m reinforces his selection to compete in the English Schools Championships next weekend. Also outstanding in the field was Tom Horwood who won the Under 15 Boys Hammer Throw by almost 10 metres. In the Under 13 Girls section, Katie Scholey ran her fastest-ever 800m time for first place with Rebecca Pedley winning the B string race. In the long jump, Jessica Alden out-leaped all the other competitors to comfortably win the B string. Out on the track, Eleanor Smith picked up the Under 15 Girls 1500m B string victory, while sprinter Lucy Readman equalled her personal best, set the day before, gain first place in the Under 17 Womens B string 200m. Hunts AC finished 4th overall with 346 points.
