The full results are available on the Results/Cross Country pages of this site but we are pleased to announce that Stratford Upon Avon AC has won the Graham Heeley Trophy which goes to the Club which performs best overall at the Championships. Stratford now hold such an award for both track and field and cross country at the same time. Very well done to the Club and all its coaches, supporters – and obviously athletes.

The Warwickshire U13 and U15 team of boys and girls won their recent Inter County match against 6 other Counties. Not only did they win the match and the trophy, but they also won each of the four separate age/gender categories. Well done to the athletes and to the team manager, John Nash, and his able assistants Becky Freeman and Jackie Maull. A big thank you to the technical officials who travelled to Derby to help make the meeting run smoothly – Maggie Murphy, Paul Hayes, Ray Morgan, Gordon Horne, Nick Winch, Alison Clamp and Eric Fowler

1. New Hon Sec
I am pleased to announce that Eric Fowler of Nuneaton Harriers has been appointed to the position of Honorary Secretary of WCAA. Eric takes over from Keith Richards who continues to be involved with WCAA and the sport in the wider sense.
2. Next Cross Country Championships
Warwickshire County AA is pleased to announce that the next County Cross Country Championships will be held on 10th December 2022 at Welkin Farm, Easenhall. This is a new venue on a genuine cross country course and we very much appreciate the support of the landowner, Mr John Lea, for making it possible. More details will follow in due course but the event will be very similar to previous Championships. We will once again combine our Championships with that of Worcestershire and the timetable will be similar to previous years. Please note two very important changes. Firstly, we have moved from the traditional date in January to early December. Secondly, the Senior Women will run 7k rather than 6k.
