North East Harrier League Prudhoe 2010/2011
Well done to everyone who has turned out for Tynedale in this season's NE Harrier League. Snow disrupted the start of the season with early fixtures having to be re-scheduled, but fortunately none had to be cancelled, and the season finished without a hitch on Saturday with the Prudhoe fixture which our club hosted.
On the whole Tynedale has had a very successful season. Thanks must go to the juniors' coaches headed up by Peter Venus, Hugh Bingham and a special mention to Steph Scott (women's captain) for her motivational emails!
The results for Prudhoe are attached, as are the final team and grand prix positions. At Prudhoe the U13 boys team finished the season strongly with Bryn Mordey 2nd, Callum Outterside 8th and Dominic Morely 16th, giving their them overall victory. In the U15's a fine performance by George Sanderson in 9th, with Tynedale in 4th team position. Polly Byron ran well securing 3rd place in the U13 girls race.
Prudhoe concluded a great season for the U13 Tynedale boys champions in their age category. Well done to Matthew Jackson who came a fantastic 2nd in the individual U13 grand prix, strong performances from Fergus Robinson and Callum Outterside as well meant they finished 7th and 8th respectively. The U15 boys were 6th team overall, and George Sanderson came 10th in the individual grand prix. Polly Byron secured a very respectable 6th position in the U13 girls' grand prix too.
There were fine performances from the Tynedale ladies throughout the season, as reflected in the grand prix results, which they dominated. Seven out of the twenty-one veteran women in the grand prix were Tynedale Harriers. Sonia Morley was 1st, Fran Little 3rd, Karen Robertson 4th, Kirstie Anderson 6th, Joanne Lee 10th, Steph Scott 13th and Kim Bluck 14th. Notwithstanding this, given the handicap system, frustratingly the Tynedale team had to settle for 2nd place behind Heaton Harriers (again - grr! ) - a brilliant result nevertheless.
For the men, Phil Vincent had a tremendous run at Prudhoe finishing in 5th place. While there were notable individual performances by the men during the season, inconsistency in getting a team out for each fixture has meant that Tynedale men are relegated to start the 2011/12 season in the second division.Hopefully this time next year I'll be reporting that they've been promoted back up!
Well done again.

NE Harrier League South Shields FINAL MATCH
Sat 28 March
Phew an exciting end to the season! Congratulations to the Under 15 Boys who won their team category overall and to Steph Bruce, Josh Brown and Sam Hearn, individual Grand Prix winners in their age groups. Also well done to Megan Lewis, third in the Under 17/20 women's category, and to the Under 15 girs who finished second team overall.
Congratulations to the senior women who finished second. After holding top spot for the last two fixtures they were denied top spot on countback (Heaton had one better-placed finish) how close is that?! They were almost victims of their own success, with most of the squad running from the fast pack! A terrific effort from Karen Robertson who won the individual grand prix for veteran women.
It came down to the wire for the senior men too, who avoided relegation by a hair's breadth, finishing above Durham City on countback.
Well done to all who ran during the season. Remove those spikes, squirt in a bit of WD40 and look forward to the Autumn when iot all starts again!
NE Harrier League Prudhoe
Sat 14 March
The senior women and the U15 boys excelled for the club again on Saturday, both coming in as first team in their races. The lads were particularly impressive, with Josh, Simeon and Kieran coming in in 1st, 2nd and 3rd places respecitively and thats running from the fast pack! James Stewart wasn't far behind in 4th either.
The senior men managed to place as 3rd team - thanks to some solid running from the medium pack, but particulalry to and 11th place finish for Ian Bromley, runing from the slows. The men are in a desperate battle to avoid relegation from the top division so please turn out for the last race at Temple Park on 28th March. You are especially needed if you haven't run a Harrier League before or for some time, as you will be starting from the slow pack and will stand a good chance of scoring for the club. Full results here.
