Attached are the results from the last Oxon league fixture of the 2016 season.

Well done to all Radley athletes who took part this year.

Thank you to athletes, parents, officials, coaches and everyone else for helping make this event happen, especially Annalise who put a massive amount into making it happen.

A finalised timetable for our open meeting can be downloaded here.
No adjustments have been made since the provisional timetable.

Could all those taking part in the Javelin event wear 6mm spikes.

Radley’s senior team travelled to its final SAL match in Dartford on Sat 20 Aug.

Lack of availability of athletes meant the team was only 16 athletes strong (including 6 masters athletes) across both genders and this was therefore always going to be a struggle to fill every event (2 per event) against the top 2 teams in the league. Despite this the athletes there covered as much as they could and rallied around, showing great team spirit to muster as many points as possible. Unfortunately it wasn’t enough and the team came 4th on the day with only 143 points.

At the u15/u17 South of England Champs Holly Griffiths-Brown landed the Gold medal in the u15 girls triple jump. As Holly took her first jump it was evident that the competition was over as she landed a 10.58mt jump - this was up in the top 5 jumps in the country this year and shocked the other competitors who never recovered. No one could respond and Holly just got better and better as the rounds went on.

Radley AC are proud to announce that after a lot of hard work we have been reaccredited with Clubmark, Sport England’s national accreditation scheme for high quality community clubs.

8 Radley athletes had entered this year’s SEAA Combined Events Championships, with every expectation of 3 of them taking a medal.

Regrettably the attrition rate meant that no medals were forthcoming.

Day one – Saturday the 16 July started badly as Adela Hussain (SW) had to pull out before the competition started with a damaged foot. With Pakistan internationals to prepare for this was a precaution we had to take to ensure she is in good shape in Oct/Nov.

The closing date for nomination for Regional /National Awards is 31st July. Why not make a nomination?

A fantastic team effort saw Radley’s senior team clinch 2nd place in their penultimate fixture of the season behind a very strong home TVH team.

15 very committed Oxfordshire athletes striving to get through the regional round, of this year's, ESAA combined events (Midland Div) to secure a place in the national finals in September at Exeter.

Some athletes were quite experienced whilst 6 athletes were making their debuts including the entire u15 boys team.
