HEREFORD just missed out on promotion from Midland Track & Field League Division Six following the last meeting in the city.

There were some good performances from Hereford though, notably Clara Evans in the 800m and 3000m, Sylvia Misztal in the 400m hurdles and Megan Turton in the pole vault.

Evans and Turton also had two second place finishes, while Misztal had one second place, as well as winning the 200m 'B' race.

Other `B` event winners were Cody Cooke in the 100m and 200m, Leah Russell-Wells in the Long Jump and Javelin and Laura Jenkins, who was competing for the first time in the discus. Graham Hazlegreave also took part for the club for the first time in able body athletics as a F12 visually impaired athlete and threw 6.62m in the shot.

Hereford finished third overall, behind Daventry and Sutton-in-Ashfield.
