Yvette Baker Trophy first round Victory!
Well done to all OD juniors including affiliated King Henry pupils and Warwick University students.
We had a great turnout with 33 competing in
the Yvette Baker qualifying round at Shugborough, winning the round to
go through to the final at Sherwood Pines on 4th December. Our
strength in depth was impressive and although only the top 9 on the
day counted for our points, many of the others pushed HOC, WCH and
MDOC runners into lower places!

OD GETS AWARDS FOR ALL GRANT We have now heard that our application to the Awards for All programme has been successful, and that we have been awarded a grant of £4195. This will meet 50% of the cost of our proposal (described below); the other 50% will be met from club funds, which we have built up for this purpose. Basically, the grant is for electronic equipment
for use at our small-scale local events and for our work with schools.
As we said in our application: This
is easier to use for participants, has a more attractive image, and
enables the provision of rapid information about performance to
participants. All of these benefits will facilitate access and increase
participation. Electronic
equipment also allows more imaginative use of small areas of land, such
as inner city parks in Coventry and Bedworth and school playing fields. The Committee is currently evaluating the services and products offered by the two electronic systems, Sportident and Emit, before coming to a final decision about which would be best to purchase. We have some experience already of Sportident; to introduce officials and participants to Emit, it will be used at the Draycote event on Saturday 7 February and at the Ragley event on Sunday 29 February. If you have any views on the relative merits of the two systems, please let Committee members know. Martin Cross
