The bottom meadow in Myrtle Park was a mass of Children, Parents and teachers for the Bingley Harriers annual Cross Country Challenge races. The 9th annual event was run on a damp overcast afternoon with a record massive entry of 895 children from 58 schools. The event and the continued young athlete development will benefit Bingley Harriers from the sponsorship from local builder MLC Construction Ltd and the government backed Sportsmatch scheme. A pleasing endorsement of the event was, not only the increased number of schools, the increased number of Primary School Children but also the large increase in the upper school children taking part. In particular in the School Year 11/12/13 age group we normally see a handful of reluctant participants, but not this year, it was a very competitive race with over 70 Boys and Girls giving it their best efforts, well done. Reports indicate that the schools and athletes really enjoyed the event and Bingley Harriers have had several enquires from enthusiastic parents who would like their children to become more involved.

Congratulations to all who took part and many thanks to our sponsors MLC Construction Ltd, and Sportsmatch, and the teachers for their support and to all the helpers on the day.
