Weaver Cup - Cross CountryThis event took place on Thursday 17 th March with near perfect weather and ground conditions. Chagford Primary successfully defended their team title with Okehampton A coming a very close second and North Tawton third. Millie Wood from Chagford also defended her individual girl's title with Eve Colton from Okehampton second and Sophie Licence, Chagford third. Boys - 1 st George Speak, North Tawton , 2 nd Matthew Johns, Okehampton, 3 rd Craig Dennis, North Tawton . South Tawton had a large number of their team missing due to illness and many younger children who had not been training had to stand in at the last minute - well done and thank you to everyone who took part. A big THANK YOU to Helen and Tony Clark for their hospitality and hard work in organising this event. |

Please make use of this offer and remember that the car park at the Recreation Ground has plenty of spaces with a footpath across to the main street available now. |
