Look for a new development competition for U13's
We will be monitoring all performances over the 4 events listed below throughout the indoor  season.  
 
U13 boys and girls will compete in a triathalon covering the best 3 performances over the 4 events.
 
Performances in the Long Jump, High Jump, Shot Putt and 60m Hurdles events will accrue points taken from CE events tables and the best 3 performances per athlete will be totalled to produce the 2007/8 regional champion. 
 
This competition will be repeated over the outdoor season and could include a similar format for other age groups if the concept proves successful.
 
The triathalon competition for the outdoor season has well and truly started. Patrick O'Connor is currently in 1st place for the boys followed closely by Jack Young and Ryan Sutton.
 
The girls competition is currently being led by Alix Waites who has already hit the 1000 point mark and Stephanie Addison is very close behind for 2nd place.

What works for one may not work for all however the fact is it may work for you!
 
I have added articles around athletics from many different sources and opinions. It is a vital aspect to highlight that there are many differing opinions about all subjects related to the sport. It is this particular diversity that is an exciting prospect for both coach and athlete.
 
Studying your craft and having to make decisions based around all the anomolies from one person to another is one of the many stimulations that make coaching what it is.
