Congratulations to all our Walton AC athletes who competed at Bedford over the weekend.
Everybody competed exceptionally well; to even be able to be able to enter Nationals our athletes had to get a qualifying standard so it was brillant for the club to see 9 of our athletes able to compete; 6 of them competing in their first ever National Championships.
It was a great experience for them all and definitely “fire in their bellies” to come back next year.
Walton AC topped the Surrey tables in terms of medals wiith National Champions Sophie Mace in U17 Discus and Sam Mace in U15 Discus. Sam also received a silver medal in U15 Hammer and Tait Jones a bronze medal in U15 Discus.
