XC AGM

LEAGUE RETURNS TO SHREWSBURY

The 2015-16 season of the Grand Prix Express North Wales Cross-Country League will see a return to Shrewsbury.

 At the annual meeting of the League the following fixtures were set:- October 3 - Bangor, October 17 - Llandudno, November 28 - Wrexham or Deeside, January 16 - Walford College, Baschurch (hosted by Shrewsbury), February 6 - Oswestry.

 The North Wales championships will be held on January 30 at Rhug, Corwen.

 Club representatives at the meeting backed a proposal by Prestatyn Running Club that could see two clubs being relegated from Division 1 instead of one.

 The change would mean that the bottom club would drop automatically and the second-from-bottom club would also go down if its points total is less than that of the runners-up in Division 2.

 With four ladies to count in Division 1 and only three in Division 2 the system would be difficult to apply so a straightforward two up - two down is to be introduced.

 The new system will come in next season unless several of  those clubs not at the AGM are against it.

 The League's affiliation fees are to re main at 50.
