BRITISH ATHLETICS LEAGUE, DIVISION 3, JARROW 5 AUGUST 2000

The dismal season for the British League team came to an end at Jarrow on Saturday when the mathematical chance of survival rapidly disappeared, as the team again placed last and were relegated to Division 4 for the summer 2001 season. Maintaining their place in Division 3 for another season was always going to be a tall order for not only was a win required but City of Norwich would have had to place last as well. The highlights were individual A string wins for Phil Sadler in the 400m and Martin Kearns in the 3000m 'chase and a consolation win in the last event, the 4 x 400m relay.
