Walton AC boys claimed 3rd place in their first match back in division 1 of the Ebbisham League, having been promoted straight back after one season in division 2.
Despite a depleted team for the opening match (only seven athletes attended), the team achieved a creditable 3rd place.
In the U13 Ben Kennard achieved a 1st in the 400m and 2nd with a PB in the 1500m of 5.16.7, Hugo Fleming achieved 1st in the 800m and 1500mm.
In the U14 category Harry Marchbank had a 2nd and two 3rd places, Louis Johnson was 1st with a PB of 12.8 in the 100m and also had 2nd place in the 200m & Triple Jump. Wesley Turner was 1st with a PB of 16.53 in the discus and was also 3rd in the Javelin.
The final category of U15 had a notable 1st place in the 1500m from Alex Stockinger who also obtained two 3rd places in the 400m and discus, with Harry Shakespeare also gaining 3rd place in the High Jump and the discus with a PB.
The day closed with a creditable relay from the U15s, which all in all with the 5 PBs so early in the season bodes well for the rest of the season.
