Welsh Junior Athletics League 23rd May Aberdare

It was a scorching hot day for the second round of the new Welsh Junior League, and the performances were just as hot. With records tumbling everywhere, the busiest person on the park was the field referee who was constantly validating new records, some which only stood for a few minutes.

Kyle Arnold was one of the stars of the day with three wins out of three, which included a new league record in the 75m Hurdles. Rhys Norris broke his own record in the 1500m whilst Heddwyn Louden and Stevan Russell fought over the new record in the Discus. Stevan held it for just one throw as Heddwyn edged it. With Ryan Morgan also breaking Stevan's Javelin record, he must have though he was being picked on. Overall the Under 13 boys were dominant and rounded off their day with an emphatic win in the relay.

Not wanting to be outdone the Under 15 girls also chipped in with a couple of new records, starting as always with Beth Wakefield in the 100m (though she had to share it after race 2). Next it was Hannah Griffiths who bettered her own records in the 200m and the 300m just to show how it's really done. Beth Hill Howells had a close competition in the High jump coming away with 2nd but another PB. Megan Coe also improver her PB in the Javelin, there was a mix up of Chloe's on the Discus (the official results are of course wrong) as Chloe Powell took 2nd not the Cardiff girl Chloe Phillips.

Katie Jane Priest was in stunning form again, cracking yet another pair of records some distance ahead of the field in both the 100m and the 200m. She was then part of the victorious 4x100m team that also broke the record, with Mellissa Roberts, Morgan Woodward and Danielle Morgan.

The Under 11 girls were swarming over the records as well, starting with Amelia Reynolds who broke both the 75m record and the 150m record. Emma Ligthart lopped over 10 seconds off of the previous best in the 800m before the girls got together and took the 4x100m time apart as well.
