After a 2 year covid-inflicted break, the Forth Valley League returned to a sunny Livingston today. This is a great league to start competing in – some of Scotland’s top athletes have competed in the league in years gone by and some have even gone on to the Olympics!
Team Lasswade competing in a tough division 1, had track debuts from Laura, Florence, Megan and Lucy. They were joined by Mia, Abbie, Eloise, Bethan and Yasmin to make up the small, but growing Lasswade team.
There were great performances all round including a 32 second PB in the 800m from Bethan. Admittedly, the absence of competitions due to covid has meant that there haven’t been as many opportunities to compete but it goes to show that all the hard work that our athletes have put in over the last two years with the help of our dedicated coaches is paying off.
Our next event for the Under 13 and Under 15 athletes is the Youth Development League at Kilmarnock on Sunday, May 22nd followed by the 2nd Match for the Forth Valley League at Grangemouth on Sunday ,12th June (we’ll be competing in the afternoon so you’ll be able to have a bit of a lie-in!)
