Harriers young athletes battle valiantly in cup final	by: Matthew Kiernan 2nd Aug 2010 14:10:33
Croydon Harriers’ young athletes' team endured a baptism of fire at the inaugural McCain’s NATYAL Southern area final on Sunday. Although Croydon were in the mix in the Under 13 and Under 15 age groups, it was a lack of Under 17’s that proved fatal as they finished 8th out of the eight competing clubs at Hendon. There were still plenty of performances to be proud of for the Harriers however, with Cameron Smith bowing out of the young athletes ranks in .... [more]

But despite the best efforts of those willing to fill gaps in unfamiliar territory, a .... [more]
