Stewart Harris has served the sport for decades in a number of ways until his last outing today as Referee at one of his favourite events – the Combe 8 hosted by Sphinx AC.

The photo shows Paul Bergin of Sphinx AC on the left with Stewart in the middle and Dave Goodwin of Massey Ferguson RC on the right. Dave is the Chairman of the Warwickshire Road Race League and he presented Stewart with a League medal and a gift from the League and its Clubs. Earlier in the day Paul had presented Stewart with an inscribed tankard from Sphinx AC.

In his earlier days Stewart was a very capable distance athlete but he is better known for his service to the Sport. He was the drive behind Warwickshire Schools for a number of years but has also made a huge contribution to Club, County and Midlands Track and Field, Cross Country and Road athletics.

Stewart has a wide interest in all sports and an encyclopaedic knowledge of them but his main loves are Athletics and Rugby (and dogs and horses).

Many thanks to Stewart from all your friends and colleagues in the sport for all your service and encouragement.

Our U13/U15 boys and girls competed in the annual Inter County match yesterday. The U15 boys won their age group while the U13 boys and both girls age groups finished second in their categories. Overall the team won the event for the 16th time in 20 years – a remarkable run of success and a great credit to the athletes and the team management of John Nash and Becky Freeman.
A big thank you to the technical officials who also travelled to Hull – Gordon Horne, Ron Lees, Jackie Maull and Ray Morgan and also to the supporters who were willingly press-ganged to help on the day.
