The South West League
Some of the Forum clubs
participate in Track & Field competition such as the Devon Open
Series. The Armada AF Team has been set up to give everyone in the
Forum clubs a chance to take part in Track & Field.
The team competes in
Division 2 of the South West League. This is a league for both juniors
and seniors who compete together. There are 9 clubs in the division
from all over the South West. The level of competition is good but it
is a very friendly league which welcomes newcomers and those not used
to track and field competitions.
The Forum has contributed
£1000 to the costs of taking part in the league (affiliation fees and
transport) so costs for each club are small.
Here are the diary dates
for the upcoming season:

We will be hiring a coach

atmosphere on the trips and, thanks to the Forum, it is a cheap day
out.
