30-31 Jan 2010 NORTHERN INDOOR CHAMPIONSHIPS - SHEFFIELD



A Report by our 'Welsh Correspondent'

Another indoor championships, another medal haul for city of stoke athletes! Having conquered the north of England two weeks ago, James Gardner moved onto Wales this weekend. he won gold with his second attempt of the competition with a leap of 6.99m setting a welsh championship record in the process. This was the best of a good series of jumps from James including two others over 6.90metres.
James was following his sister's example from the day before when Katie won the under 17 welsh championship with a season's best 5.12 metres. Katie also managed to pick up a bronze medal in the shot on the same day with a significant personal best of 9.93metres. These two results together with a recent PB in the indoor hurdles set her up for the possibility of a good performance in the upcoming National multi-events championship in early March.
