During
1951 Mr. William Pulton, who owned the Fish and Chip shop
in Crow Nest Road in Bingley and whose daughter was amongst
the first junior female members, presented the Club with a
trophy to be competed for over the summer months by the
younger members in track and field activities. A points
system was devised for a series of events in various age
groups and the first winners of the trophy were Jean Lockwood
and Dennis Farnsworth. Still popular nowadays, the Pulton
Cup Competition is looked forward to and competed for by
a large number of the Club's youngsters.
The competition is held over three
or four days with all ages and abilities being welcome.
Each competitor's best score in sprints100/200m, middle
distance 800/1500m, long/high jump and discus/shot are combined
to find an overall winner. Trophies and medals are presented
in all age groups (U11's, U13's, U15's, U17's, U20's &
SENIORS)
Trophies and medals will be presented
to all age groups at a Presentation evening. |
