As expected, this season's South West Track and Field League Division One title race has come down to a two horse race between Yeovil Olympiads AC and the defending league champions, Cornwall AC.

The Somerset club won their third successive match at Exeter recently, leaving the local club, who again filled the runner’s up spot, three points adrift.  Yeovil need only to finish in the top three in the final match in September, assuming Cornwall AC win that match, to clinch the league title.

In the age group comptitions, Cornwall beat Yeovil by a narrow five point martin in the Under 15 Girls category and much more emphaticallyin the combined Under 17 Women and Senior Women's age group, so it was not surprising that five of the club's nine individual 'A' string wins and both relay successes came from these age groups.

In the Under 15 competition, Georgia Doyle-Lay led the way with a double 'A' string victory in the 300 metres (45.47) and long  jump (4 metres 86), before helping the sprint relay quartet to further success, beating Exeter Harriers by almost one second.  The Under 17 and Senior Women's team boasted three individual wins and a relay triumph, with the Under 17 athletes Abbie Hewitt winning the 300 metres (43.78) and Chessie Waters out jumping the opposition in the high jump, clearing 1 metre 50.  Jenny Almey was the club's lone Senior Ladies winner, clocking 5 minutes 25.68 in the 1500 metres, although the combined team posted another victory in the 4 x 400 metre relay.

'A' string wins in the male age groups were few and far between, with Kieran Westlake outdistancing his rivals in the Under 17 shot (12 metres 18) and Frazer Clark being even more dominant with a throw of 41 metres 92, to win the Under 20 javelin.  On the track the only winning performance from the male side of the team came from Dan Rodgers, who was far too good for the opposition in the Senior 2000 metre steeplechase, winning by over one minute in 6 minutes 41 28 seconds
