Meeting quality standards

We try to run the club so that its members interests are properly met and we are pleased that the club has been awarded the two premier accreditations for sports clubs:

1. We have been awarded Clubmark by England Athletics, the National Governing Body for athletics in England, on behalf of Sport England. Clubmark accreditation is awarded to clubs that comply with minimum operating standards in four areas:

  • the playing programme
  • duty of care and safeguarding and protecting children and young people
  • sport equity and ethics
  • club management.

If you want to know more about Clubmark go to www.clubmark.org.uk

 

2. The club is also a CASC (Community Amateur Sports Club) which means it has satisfied the Charity Commission that its constitution and organisation is good enough to be given charitable status. You can find out more about CASCs at www.cascinfo.co.uk.

Ed Aston won the silver medal in the England Athletics Senior 800m championships at Gateshead on 18th July.

Congratulations to all our English Schools competitors for their good performances, but especially by Ben Kelk - 3rd in U20 Mens 110 Hurdles, and Morgan Young - 4th in U15 Boys Javelin.

Another new Senior men's 800m record for Ed Aston of 1.47.96 in the BMC Grand Prix at Solihull on July 10th

Charlotte Cox added the DSE Under 20's 100m and 200m Gold medals to the double silvers she won in the Mencap National Championships.

4th place for Ed Aston at the UKA Trials in Birmingham, just missing out on a medal place, while Ian Williamson set a new personal best in the 1500m.

National Championship win for Ben Kelk in the Under 20 mens 100m hurdles in the U20/U23 championships at Bedford. Ben ran 13.86 in the heats and 13.87 in the final. A new personal best but tantalisingly just six hundredths short of Jon Ridgeons club record set in 1984.

C&C has been awarded clubmark status once again (on 4th June).  England Athletics sent the following note:

The Clubmark Folder has just been assessed this morning and I’m pleased to inform you that it has successfully passed. Alex Copeland (National Club Development Officer) commented that it was the best folder (across all sports) that he has ever seen, so well done to you and everyone at the club.

 

 C&C almost swept the board for age-group trophies at the County Championships - eight out of nine this year, one better than 2009. Ben Kelk set a new championship best performance in the Under 20 mens 110m hurdles. All results now in the track and field results pages.
