Final result:

1st  Blackheath & Bromley 428 pts
2nd Windsor, Slough, E &H 426 pts
3rd Harrow 336 pts
4th Havering Mayesbrook 302 pts

Havering Mayesbrook youngsters had a baptism of fire as they came up against two of the strongest clubs in the South of England in the opening fixture of the newly set up National Young Athletes League Southern Premier Division at Bromley on Saturday. The league has been reorganised from separate boys' and girls' divisions into a combined Boys' & Girls' League, and despite many excellent performances the local team - lacking several athletes resting ahead of Monday's Essex championships, finished fourth and last. Newly-formed Blackheath & Bromley, from the merger of two strong clubs, just edged out super-club Windsor, Slough, Eton & Hounslow.

In the youngest category, the U13 Girls:  Nicola Hill & Catrina McAuliffe managed an excellent double first in the 75m Hurdles in 12.6s & 13.9s respectively. Nicola also made it a double winning the B shot.

The strong U15 Girls squad contributed an excellent seven victories: Lucy Sargent had a notable victory in the 100m in 12.8s into a headwind and was 2nd in the Long Jump in an impressive 5.08m. Lisa Schofield also won two events in a successful afternoon with a PB to win the B Long Jump with a 4.81m leap & a winning B 75m Hurdles in 12.8s. Louise Yard continues to improve in the Shot winning in a PB of 9.55m & was also 2nd in the Discus in 26.66m. Her B string partners were both victorious: Alex Winch made it a shot double, while Lauren Clark's discus PB also won. Also on the field Lauren McVicar was a good winner of the Javelin with a throw of 24.87m, after finishing 2nd in the B100m. 

This U17 Women's age group recorded some excellent performances as usual, notching up ten wins. Sara Luck won the 300m B String in 41.9s, third on the club all time lists while another PB came from Lynsey Clark's winning the discus throw of 35.82m. Megan Foley managed 2nd in one of the closest races of the day, the 800m in 2m 16.5s. Sarah-Jane Moore and Helen Roche made an impressive double first in the 1500m in 5m13.9s (PB) & 5m21.9s respectively as did the 3000m girls of Laura Moore and Jenny Szantai who fought both the distance and heat to record PBs of 12m17.5s & 13m00.1s with Laura leading for all 7.5 laps! Caroline Smith collected good points with double success, winning the B 300mH, then the B 800m 50 minutes later and then getting 2nd in the B Shot.

U13 Boys: Grant Twist had an impressive victory in the 800m leading throughout to win in a new PB of 2m36.4s. Bradley Reece won the A shot, while David Creedon sprinted to victory in the B 100m.
U15 Boys: The 800m should have been one of the best events, but unfortunately both Ashley Reece & Ross Clarke broke from their lane too early and as a result were disqualified. Ashley actually recorded a time 6 seconds faster than before and Ross was also inside his previous fastest time. The only winning double in this category was the long jump with Nathaniel Senior winning the A in 4.78m & Vincent Lazaro the B in 4.76m.
U17 Men: Although not too many winning performances in this age group, there were several boys doing multiple events to help the club accumulate much needed extra points. Andrew Bartlett gave an excellent performance in winning the 400m in a PB of 51.3s for 9th on the club all-time u17 list, after placing 2nd in the 100m in 11.7s. Terry O'Leary continued his impressive start to the season with another PB in the Javelin throwing over 50m for the 1st time with 50.71m - the second best ever by a club athlete in this age group.
Ashley Roberts made a welcome return after a year out picking up valuable points in the 3000m, 1500m & the 4*400m. Danny Skelt did likewise competing in the 800m, 1500m S/C (1st B) & 4*400. Paul Andrews did the 400mH, 1500m
S/C & then did the next event, the 4*400m.

With several athletes unavailable, the team should improve on this position in future matches, when the opposition will hopefully not be so fierce.
