Firstly, and most importantly, a big thank you to all of the technical officials and volunteers who made the event possible and such a success. Also to the Nick Wilson and his stadium staff and all of the Nuneaton Harriers volunteers from refreshments to registration and results.
The results are now on Power of 10 and the athletes profiles have been updated. If you spot my deliberate mistake in there somewhere please let me know.
The Warwick Vase for the best Club overall was retained by Stratford Upon Avon AC who first won it in 2016 and have kept it ever since. They were pushed hard by Birchfield Harriers, Coventry Godiva Harriers and Rugby & Northampton AC.
The Jack Hartley Trophy for the best individual performance goes to Craig Murch of Birchfield Harriers for his hammer throw of 70.52 Craig has won the Jack Hartley trophy a remarkable 5 times now. The photo for this post features Craig.
The Coronation Cup for the best performance over 1500m goes to Noah Homer of Birchfield Harriers who reduced the County record considerably in that event – and also in the 800m so an exceptional weekend by him.
We also recognise the best performances we look at each age group but to qualify for an award the performance must be a AAA grade 1. You can imagine that comparing a sprint with a distance race, a jump or a throw is quite difficult and subjective.
The best performances in each age group have been judged as : –
U13 Boys
Noah Homer of Birchfield Harriers for his 1500m in 4.33.99
honourable mention for Charlie Cook
U15 Boys
Andre Onyekwe of the Leamington Athletics Academy for his high jump of 1.88m
honourable mentions for Kyle Enticott and Robbie Dale
U17 Men
Rusciano Thomas-Riley of Coventry Godiva Harriers for his 100m in 11.03
