National
Young Athletes’ Girls' League, Premier Division 5, Norwich 2nd June 2002
The
Girls’ NYAL team were edged out in a three-way fight for second place, in
which just three points separated the teams at Norwich on Sunday. The Havering
Mayesbrook girls finished fourth (of 8 teams), just one point behind Milton
Keynes and three behind hosts Norwich as Bromley Ladies took an early lead in
the fight for the two places for the National Finals.
On a
day of good competition and high standard performances in all events wins were
hard to come by but two U15 girls excelled to notched win doubles. Chloe Van Wulven, fresh from her bronze medal in the South of
England championships, soared to a new PB of 1.51m in winning the high jump,
before recovering from a poor start to win her favoured 75m hurdles event.
Lisa Schofield made it a hurdles double, winning the 75m hurdles B race,
before spinning the discus out to take B string points in that event also.
She also placed 2nd in the B long jump.
There
were just four other wins, two more in the under 15 age group. Lucy Sargent leapt to long jump success in the A event while
Megan Foley gave an impressive display of front running to record a new PB of 2m
15.8 secs in winning the A 800m.
Mel
Harrison and Lynsey Clark completed the roll of Havering Mayesbrook victories to
make it a discus double in the under 17 age group.
New PBs
were recorded by Caroline Smith who lopped almost two seconds off her 300m
hurdles time to go to third on the club all time list with 47.7 secs before
running well in the 800m and 300m flat.
Sara Luck improved her 300m time to 42.7, for equal fifth in the StatPack. Katie
Richardson & Robyn Matson both recorded PBs in the U15 1500m A & B
races.
Team
manager Trevor Jones remains confident that the girls will be at full strength
in order to do enough in the two remaining fixtures – at Enfield on 30 June
and Crawley on 21 July – to achieve one of the two qualifying positions for
the National finals at Birmingham on 31 August/1 September.
