Fendley joy at progress

Team manager Peter Fendley has high hopes for strong finishes to the campaign.

He said: “Our ladies are in a very strong position to become league champions, having won all four matches, and they seem to be getting stronger with each match.”

“The men are lying fourth and, with a good result in the last match, could still finish runners-up.”

“The boys are in third place, while the girls have performed well with a depleted team due to fixture congestion.”

The club chairman is delighted with the strength in depth at the Harriers.

He added: We have come a long way since joining this league, because three years ago we did not have a senior men’s or women’s track and field team for our juniors to move into.”

“Now our juniors can think about moving into a winning team without having to worry about changing clubs, which has to be good for the long term future of Worksop Harriers.”

“As our senior teams get stronger, over the next couple of years, we can consider joining the men’s and women’s Midland League, which will give all of our athletes a higher level of competition.”

Worksop’s team positions in their respective leagues after the forth of five matches: Ladies (1st, 685pts), Men (3rd, 622), Girls (7th, 352), Boys (3rd, 679.5)
