Southern Women's League

 

Ryston women's team currently compete in Senior Division 3 of the Southern Women's League.

The League consists of 5 matches and all track and field events are covered within a day of competition:

TRACK:
3000m, 1500m, 800m, 400m, 200m, 100m, 400m Hurdles, 100m Hurdles, 4 x 100m relay and 4 x 400m relay.

FIELD:
Pole vault, High jump, Long jump, Triple jump, Shot, Discus, Javelin and Hammer.

A competition rule about the number of events that each athlete can compete in (including any non-scoring events) depends on their age group as follows:

Veteran & Senior Women: Up to FIVE individual events and both relays
Under 20 Women: Up to FIVE events (including both relays)
Under 17 Women: Up to THREE individual events and ONE relay
OR
Up to TWO individual events and TWO relays

YOU MUST BE 15 AND OVER TO COMPETE!

On the competition day we will travel by minibus as a team to the venue, it is likely that the minibus will start at Lynnsport (Kings Lynn) or the Fed Club (Downham Market) - other pick up arrangements can be made if you are unable to make it to either place.

Please don't think that this league is for the elite only, we are entering this as a team and would like to compete as well as we can together, not just as individuals, so don't be afraid to come along and compete for Ryston whatever your ability as there will be support for however well you do!

If you are interested in competing in the league but have never tried some of the events then there are taster sessions for different events on a Monday night from 7pm at Lynnsport Track/Barn. Again, whatever your ability don't be afraid to come and have a go!

If you have any questions about the Southern Womens League please speak to Rebecca Tuff, Ian Hogarth or Martin Ive.
