FVL final match 2010
We ended up 3rd in our division after Central (who won) and Dunfermline/West Fife. We were really close before this meeting but unfortunately loads of the kids were on holiday. Those who were there did really well. Highlights of the meeting were a storming finish by Euan in his 100m with a time of 14secs exactly, Matthew and Michael with a 1, 2 in the mile, Anthony breaking 5minutes to win his 1500 and an amazing long jump of 3m56 by Sarah who had also won her 100m in 15secs exactly. And not to be outdone by her brothers, Hannah won her 1500 as well.
Our new manager (Grant) possibly took team managing to a new level by loaning his trainers (size 11!) to one of the kids who needed to do shot but had just finished a sprint and so was still wearing spikes. The athlete went on to throw a PB so well done both of them.
In fact well done to all the athletes, officials and Mums and Dads who helped out at all the FVL competitions this year.
Have to agree Bob. It was a great day yesterday and there were several brilliant races making the day very enjoyable. Everyone gave it their all and a thank you to all of those young athletes who put up with the various changes that had to be made and swapped events round and also took part in additional ones. A great team spirit and performance.
And thanks Bob, I can't take credit for this you really know your stuff.
The FVL Presidents select match results were delayed due to illness of the FVL webmaster. However they are now in and CAAC did a lot better than Scotland seem to have done so far in the commonwealth games!
We collected 1 Gold, 3 Silver and 6 Bronze medals. Not bad for a wee club like ours.

Fantastic - well done team!
