Southern Women’s League at Twickenham
Once again the PAC women excelled in the recent Southern Women’s League match held at Twickenham on the 15th July 2006. In a very hot and sunny day there were many fine performances with Leah Parsons excelling in gaining a personal best of 1.75m in the high jump in addition to her wins in the 100H, the javelin and the final leg of the relay. Stacy McGivern gained six wins and a second in her seven that she competed in. With three wins from Kelly Sutton in 400H,the 400m and the 400m relay and a valuable contribution from Nichola Gibson with three wins, Steph Cooper and Chelsea Oldham both with two wins each. There was also valuable support from Lucy Davies, Sarah Caskey and Jenny Cade, even assistant team manager Kay Gibson and team manager Jan Longman also played their part by throwing the hammer making it a great all round team performance.
In the junior section there was a sprint treble for Sharna Emanuel in the 100m, 200m and relay also there was sprint wins from Caroline Swain and Gemma Bays. Samantha Longman gained a win in the 1500m with her sister Michelle joining the sprint trio to win the 100m relay to add to a fine performance in the 75H, an event she has never trained for. Finally a special mention must go to 11 year old Clarissa Murphy who was competing against girls 2-3 years older than herself achieving a PB in the Long Jump, a PB in the hurdles (which were U15 height) and also a PB in the 800m which gained valuable points in the overall teams effort.
