31st July 2005  UK WOMEN'S LEAGUE DIVISION 1 - ABINGDON


A superb personal best for Emma Jackson in the 400m and a good overall team performance. Fifth position overall could have been improved on with more depth in certain events.  It is encouraging that we have managed to turn out teams double the size of the previous two years, not in weight or height, but in numbers! This shows what can be achieved with larger teams. However to move forward in the future we need to have more specialist competitors in the field events. As we can't afford to "buy" good athletes like some other clubs we need to develop them through the club structure and then retain them at senior level. Easily said but not easily done!!  All in all I'm happy with the result but always hopeful and striving for better.
