Hi everybody,

I hope you all enjoyed half term.  Back to training as normal this week – details below the club notices section.

Well done to the juniors who competed at the National XC championships in London and in the Harrier League at Alnwick this half term. Check out Facebook for pictures.

Club notices

Parent and guardian volunteers urgently needed for Wednesday training: Please take time to read carefully Ian Pickett’s email of Thursday 20 February on the new safety and welfare arrangements for Wednesday training. These arrangements rely on a rota of parent/ guardian volunteers.  Most roles only take 15 minutes of time and could be done around pick up or drop off.

Email Ian at chair@tynebridgeharriers.com to sign up (or speak to a coach).

TBH juniors runs entirely on volunteers – every little counts to keep the club running.
