Club Champions 2013 and Awards Evening

Club Championship results for 2013 have now been calculated and the winners and medalists are shown below.

This year’s Walton AC Awards evening will be held on Saturday 1st of February.

For those people that haven’t been before, it’s essentially a fun end of season celebration with night of food, drink, a quiz and prize giving. You certainly don’t have to be winning an award to come.

We will be presenting trophies to all age groups from U13 upwards.

Age group winners and medalists are decided on the basis of their performances across the season in track and field matches with the number of times they have represented the club being taken into consideration. Standard scoring tables are used to provide comparative scores for different events.

The leading three athletes in each age group will be presented with gold, silver and bronze medals and the winner will be awarded the age group championship trophy for a year.

The Awards evening will be held at St Andrews Church Hall (just opposite the club in Hersham Road, Walton-on-Thames, Surrey, KT12 1LG).

Starting at 7:30pm the evening will consist of:

Presentations
Quiz & raffle
Meal (Bring your own drinks, some soft drinks will be provided)

There is a limit of 100 tickets, so get in early and buy in advance

Please contact Jon Ladley for tickets either:
