A New Year message from our club captains

Huge Thank You to everyone who has represented our club during 2024 whether it be on Road, Track or X Country. Every time you pull on your Birtley AC vest you are helping to raise the profile of the club and contribute to all our successes over the past 12 months. As Captains, myself and Kirstin really appreciate the fantastic efforts put in by each and everyone of you at every single race during the year. Having 'Competition' for places in Relay Teams across the board shows that the Club is in a good position and let's hope that we can continue our great work going forward into 2025.
​With this in mind we have the ideal opportunity to start the New Year in great style with our very own Birtley AC XC Relays on Sunday 12th January, held in the grounds of our training HQ at Lord Lawson School. Each leg is approx 3K and open to every Birtley Athlete aged U20 and upwards - please have a look and add your names to the list on Spond if you possibly can. Thanks to everyone who has signed up so far but we really could do with more names to ensure we can be competitive in every Age Category both Male & Female. If you're not competing (or even if you are), we also need people to volunteer for the various roles required to host the event, e.g. marshaling, please add your name to the volunteer list if you can help out.
Wishing you all a Very Happy New Year and All the Best for 2025 - let's make it another year to remember for Birtley AC. PJB & Kirstin 💙💛
