Juniors News Update
Read on to find out how to take part in the North East Youth Development League Track and Field and how to pay your subs, which are now due.
This Summer Wallsend Harriers have partnered up with Gosforth Harriers to enter and take part in the North East Youth Development League Track and Field.
We will be looking for interest from U13G/B, U15G/B and U17G/B to participate in a number of track and field events as attached schedule, this will take part over four meetings between May and July as listed below.
Athletes may compete in a maximum of 3 individual events and 1 relay.
If your child is available and is interested please let us know as we will be trying to pull a team together over the next month and we have to submit the entrants before each meet.
We are planning on practising the field events and additionally do some time trials over April to help the kids before they take part. This will give them some practise and allow us to pick the team prior to first meet on the 1st May.
Due to limited number races not everybody will be able to be chosen. Therefore can you ensure that if your child wants to take part that you are available and will attend as it would be a shame if somebody did not turn up when another athlete could have taken that place and earned the club points.
Please also be aware that they must be a member of the club and have paid their membership up to date or they will not be allowed to take part.

SUBS 2016 ARE NOW DUE
You should have received an email from England Athletics on Friday (1st April).
This has a link with details about how to pay your subs, which includes your England Athletics fee. If you haven’t received an email by next week, please speak to me or Mick Day.
If you don’t use the internet, please come and speak to either Elaine Liu, Mick Day or email info@wallsendharriers.co.uk and we can get your subs paid ASAP
As usual subs are due by 31 May 2016 and we would like to get this all up-to-date as there is a waiting list for junior members so we would hate your child to loose there place as there was a lot of unpaid subs last year.
