Sunday 30th April, Kilmarnock
After a few seasons out of the CSSAL League, Lasswade re-joined in Division 3. With age groups from Under 11 through to Masters (over 35s) covered, it is often described as a “family day out” with parents and children often competing on the day.
The competition seemed to get off to a great start with Lasswade athletes seemingly coming home first in almost every event they were in and if they weren’t first they weren’t far behind. However, we did have lots of gaps in our team sheet which is partially down to exams and the distance to travel for this competition. It would be great to see more athletes turn out to compete – we had no competitors at all in a number of age groups, which is a bit disappointing especially as there are a good number of Under 11 and Under 13 boys training with us.
The finalised results are still in the process of being scrutinized, the provisional results see Lasswade finish comfortably in 2nd place. A great start to the season.
