What a great turnout from the juniors with 19 taking part in the final summer series race at Widdop. Once again we saw some outstanding performances which resulted in 9 medals being won.
In the U8 race Grace Root finished 2nd girl to claim silver.
The U10 race saw a Clayton double gold with Jackson Mckay 1st boy and Ella Dorrington 1st girl. There were also good performances from Adam and Keira Stevenson, Roanna Holdsworth and Molly Hesketh.
Briony Holt was 1st girl and gold medal winner in the U12 race and also set a course record with team mate Eleanor Root finishing 2nd girl to claim silver. New to the junior ranks Daniel Bradley ran well to finish 4th boy.
The U14 race saw six juniors competing with Kenan Eti 3rd boy taking the bronze medal closely followed by Tom Bradley 4th, Simon Wilshaw 5th, Ryan Clarke 7th and Curtis Holt 8th. Alice Pier again finished 2nd girl to win silver.
Finally in the U16 race bronze went to Jordan McDonald for 3rd boy with George Pier 4th. Beth Quinn produced a strong finish to claim 2nd girl and silver.
It was great to see so many of you racing and the atmosphere at the presentation was something to behold with each Clayton junior receiving a very loud cheer from their team mates when being presented with their medal. A strong bond has developed between the juniors which is really great to see.
Well done to ALL of you.
