On Saturday 20th November 24 Junior Ilkley Harriers ran in the 3rd race of The Complete Runner Cross country series at Bramley Park. This was the biggest turnout that the juniors has had to date, and for some people it was their first ever race in an event of such a high standard.

Volunteer of the Month Award October – Max Greaves

When we set up Ilkley Sportshall Athletics back in 2002 Max was our youngest junior at 7. I think it is fair to say that Max's attention span in those days was not great and he definitely kept the coaches on their toes. Max did 8 years of Sportshall Athletics before 'graduating' out of the sessions last Easter and although does not hold any coaching qualifications due to his age has been a junior helper on a Thursday for the last 18 months. He helps to set up for the session, coaches during the sessions when required and is generally a fantastic help. Back in 2002 I don't think any of us would have predicted such an outcome.
