What a terrific trip to the Scottish u 18 & 20 championships! fantastic group of athletes who all performed brilliantly and were a pleasure to be involved with. Two gold, three silver and two bronze.....an amazing tally of medals along with two fourth pleadings, several finalists and lots and lots of personal best performances.

Neasa Murphy won silver in the u 18 high jump with a fine jump again of 1.65m. Ben Kiely was justd pipped on the line in the u 20 400m and finished 2nd. Niamh McNichols won silver in the u 18 60m and also ran an excellent 200m to clinch the bronze. Sean Whittle added 5cm to his best ever jump to clear 1.80m and secure bronze. Kellie Meade had a pb of 1.55m for fourth in the u 18 high jump and Stephen Walsh had a marvellous run for fourth in the 60m u 18. Siobhan Whelan made the 60m final and Michael Deady had a very good run also in the u20 60m. Well done to everyone ......a marvellous championship!
