Welsh Indoor Championships 21st and 22nd January

Cwmbran athletes turn out a good team on both the Saturday and Sunday for the above competition held at the indoor stadium UWIC.

For some of our younger athletes it was the first time for them to compete at this venue. We had some really good results.

Under 13 girls Rebecca Chick and Isobel Williams got through to the 60m final, whilst Gabbi Fakande got gold in the 200m final and gold in the long Jump, Team mate Macey Jones also got through to the final for the long jump. Both Gabbi and Macey have been invited to the forthcoming Celtic Indoor Championship as guests, well done girls.

Under 13 boy Ewan Rosser made both the final for the 60m and 200m, he has also been invited to the Celtic, well done Ewan.

Under 15 girls Eve Williams and Millie Fakande made it through to the semi-final of the 200m. Millie also made the final for both the 60m and the long jump.

Under 15 boy Jared Rosser made the final for the 60m and 200m and received a Celtic invitation. Whilst Tyler Prichard come a very respectable 2^nd in the 800m final and 3^rd in the 1500m final.

Senior men – Matthew Antoniazzi took the gold in the 400m, congratulations Matthew. David Banwell-Clode was pipped to medal place coming in 4^th in the 800m final.

Senior women Emma Jordan and Chelsie Harris both made it through to the 800m final, where Emma came 4^th and Chelsie 6^th, good effort ladies.

Thank you to all the athletes who took part representing Cwmbran Harriers, I think that all the parents, friends and coaches who watched your performances over the competition, were extremely proud of all of you. I’m sure that this will be the start of many excellent performances though out 2012 for our team.
