Partners
In association with the Greater Cambridge Athletics Network, C&C is developing partnerships with high quality service providers in the area who can offer services to club members at a reduced rate. Club members have used the services listed and we have checked their qualifications. We think they are among the best in the region but you must decide – we’re not able to guarantee good service. If you think they’re very good, or maybe not up to scratch, please tell them and the club.

C&C have qualified for the East Anglian league final on Sept 19th in U13B, U13G, U15B, U15G, SW and SM agegroups. The U17 Men unfortuately didnt make it.

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