Cross Country

The Club competes in the West Yorkshire Winter League (WYWL) which has five races each year. This is an entry level league with a positive and friendly ethos. It consists of smaller West Yorkshire clubs, and encourages slower runners and those new to the sport, as well as having a competitive "top end". The emphasis, although there are individual awards, is on team participation. The league has become a central part of the running calendar for the participating clubs.
