This was the most successful South of England Championships for several years as club athletes won eight medals, two gold, three silver and three bronze.
Bonne Buwembo was a comfortable winner in the U20 javelin, taking the title by four metres. His winning throw of 63.29m was just one centimetre short of his PB & club U20 record set the previous weekend.
Lauren Deadman produced her best result since returning from injury to strike senior 3000m gold, with a new PB of 9:56.17s.
Kate Cowley (the former Miss Brewington) picked up a pair of medals. Her 1.68m high jump clearance won silver and her 5.96m long jump performance picked a a bronze medal. She missed out on a third medal when she was disqualified in the sprint hurdles.
The middle distance events brought two more medals. Harriet Scott produced her usual battling display to smash her PB to win silver in the senior 800m. Her 2:06.27s clocking was a three second improvement and takes her to fourth on the club all -time list.
Ross Clarke also produced a spirited display as he won bronze in the U20 men's 1500m with a fast 3:58.78s.
Lucy Sargent was third in the 200m with 24.74s, but was run out of the medals in the 100m sprint, finishing fifth.
Nicola Hill continues to impress. She produced a stunning run to win silver in the u20 400m hurdles with a fantastic 62.24s run - only Denise Kiernan among club athletes have run faster. She is hoping for a late entry this coming weekend to attack the 61.50s qualifying standard set by UK Athletics for the World Youth (U18) Championships in Ostrava, Slovakia. Hill also placed fourth in the U20 100m Hurdles final with an excellent 14.82s
There were also fourth places for Claire Brennan in the senior 100m hurdles and Emma Christmas whose javelin throw of 39.03m was her second longest ever.
Career best performances were set by Robyn Matson (U20 - 1500m) and Robyn Delivett (senior 400m), while Hannah Gamester leapt to her second best ever long jump of 5.19m, just one cm shy of her eight year old PB.
