Green and Gold stars of 2016

20161210_200128What a fitting almost end to the year as Wallsend Harriers of all ages and abilities scooped some serious bling at the 2016 Prize-Giving Ceremony held at Killingworth Social Club on Saturday (10th Dec). After a tough day on the x-country field our gutsy green and golds were full of smiles and excitement as they collected trophies or watched with pride as fellow Harriers were recognised for their magnificent efforts throughout the year. Each and everyone of you (whether you went home with a trophy or not) should be proud of what you have contributed to this fantastic club over the year. Now let’s make 2017 the best yet! See all the winners below.  All photos from the night are on the gallery page.  WALLSEND HARRIERS & AC Annual Presentation Night Sat 10th December 2016   Trophy List   2015-16 WGP Youth Section Competition 1          DENVER STRETESKY                          291PTS 2          OLLY AIRD                                           273PTS 3          MASON STRETESKY                           263PTS   Terry O’Gara Fun Run 2016                                                   1          ELLEN WILLIAMS                                7.50                                                 2          KATE WEATHERILL                             7.59                                                 3          LUKE PICHLER                                    8.07   The Gordon Smith Relay Fun Run                                                   1          BRIONY LIVERMORE                           7.48                                                 2          ELLEN WILLIAMS                                7.50                                                 3          DANIEL BRODERICK                            8.02   2016 SGP Youth Section Competition                                                   1          JACK ARMSTRONG                             163PTS                                                 2          DENVER STRETESKY                          141PTS                                                 3          OLLY AIRD                                           107PTS   2016 Club Youth Section Road Race Championship (1 mile approx) 1          BRIONY LIVERMORE                           5.57 2          TOM FERGUSON                                  6.02 3          ELLEN WILLIAMS                                6.11   Most improved MINI Athlete 2016   Girl                                                      HANNAH WALKER Boy                                                      ADAM FEENAN   Most improved Junior 2016   Girl                                                      ERIN PRIOR Boy                                                      MATTHEW SUMMERS   Most Promising Youth Athlete 2016                                                               SAM CHARLTON   2015-16 Winter Handicap Grand Prix (3Mile approx) George Wilkinson Cup
